perl: bump the required Perl version to 5.8.1 from 5.8.0
The following commit will make use of a Getopt::Long feature which is
only present in Perl >= 5.8.1. Document that as the minimum version we
support.
Many of our Perl scripts will continue to run with 5.8.0 but this change
allows us to adjust them as needed without breaking any promises to our
users.
The Perl requirement was last changed in d48b284183 (perl: bump the
required Perl version to 5.8 from 5.6.[21], 2010-09-24). At that time,
5.8.0 was 8 years old. It is now over 21 years old.
