Message:

Biblatex-biber and related perl module changes -
· dependency changes, remove Date::Simple, add new deps
· for biber only record time with tests, it is perl where tests are expected, all pass
· for modules ('distributions') use double colons instead of dashes in displayed names
· but use dashes in URLs to get directly to the distribution instead of getting list of matches
· also update Text::BibTeX and List::AllUtils to current versions.
