sno 41704f9580 Importing CPAN module HTTP::Tiny 0.016 into www/p5-HTTP-Tiny to extend
the Perl programming language with a simple http client as dependency of
scheduled import of MetaCPAN::API (dependency of scheduled update of
Git::CPAN::Patch).

This is a very simple HTTP/1.1 client, designed for doing simple GET
requests without the overhead of a large framework like LWP::UserAgent.

It is more correct and more complete than HTTP::Lite. It supports proxies
(currently only non-authenticating ones) and redirection. It also correctly
resumes after EINTR.
