hints files: Relax strict vars

[jkeenan]

For: #251

I wrote a (Perl 7!) program to inspect these hints files and insert no strict 'vars;` where it was not already present.

I tested this branch on NetBSD. All tests PASSed. I inspected the output of make test_prep in locations near where these 3 files would have been processed:

$VAR1 = [
  'cpan/DB_File/hints/netbsd.pl',
  'ext/DynaLoader/hints/netbsd.pl',
  'ext/POSIX/hints/netbsd.pl'
];

I found no Variable ... not imported warnings.

Obviously, until we can get a strict-compliant Perl (7) tested on a wide variety of platforms, we won't be absolutely sure that these revisions are correct. But they should be good enough for an upcoming Merge Candidate.

Please review.

Thank you very much.

Do we need to patch the cpan/* files with this?

I'm not sure which cpan/* files you're referring to. Note that there are quite a few cpan/ files in the p.r.
