There's no action on the upstream ticket(s), so it looks like this module
won't get updated for 5.22. I think we should look at minimizing the
cost of its removal.

The binary reverse dependencies are
  libxml-compile-dumper-perl
  libtest-aggregate-perl
  libmoosex-runnable-perl
  libdevel-repl-perl

and additionally there's one more package build depending on it:
  libuniversal-ref-perl

All of these except libxml-compile-dumper-perl have Data-Dump-Streamer as
an optional dependency, so I think we could just relax the dependencies
to recommendations.

The libxml-compile-dumper-perl package clearly needs Data-Dump-Streamer.
It doesn't have any reverse dependencies itself, so it may just have to
go with libxml-compile-dumper-perl if needed.

I'm cloning separate bugs for all the affected packages.
