libremakepkg: when prefixing output with ' | ', do better than sed.
There are two downsizes to using sed; it line-buffers, and (the existing pattern) doesn't handle '\r'. So, now I've included a Perl helper program to do a better job. I'd originally written it in C, and while that version was faster (the Perl version stutters occasionally), it required recompilation for different architectures. I could have gotten around that with tcc, but I didn't want to add any dependencies. Which is why I settled on Perl. It's part of group=(base), and it is required by packages in group=(base-devel), so I can count on it always being there. It doesn't handle every movement character, just '\n' and '\r', but that's enough for curl and pacman.
