Description : trust META.yml list of dependencies
CPAN doesn't trust "META.yml"'s list of dependencies for a module.
Instead it expects "Makefile.PL" run on the computer the package is
being installed upon to generate its own list of dependencies (called
"MYMETA.yml" or "MYMETA.json").
.
Module::Install::TrustMetaYml generates "MYMETA.yml" by simply passing
through the dependencies from "META.yml".
