lib/locale.t: big speedup
This fix reduces the time for this test script on my debugging build
from 45 seconds to 6 seconds.
Basically, the structure of the main loop for test 117 now looks like:
foreach my $x (keys %UPPER) {
push @f, $x if (... something bad about $x...)
}
foreach my $x (keys %lower) {
push @f, $x if (... something bad about $x...)
}
ok(!@f);
Whereas before it looked like:
foreach my $x (keys %UPPER) {
push @f, $x if (... something bad about $x...)
foreach my $x (keys %lower) {
push @f, $x if (... something bad about $x...)
}
}
ok(!@f);
i.e. the %lower tests were inadvertently repeated many times

Module::CoreList: update CAVEATS section with 5.13.9 and 5.13.10

Update Module::CoreList for 5.13.10
I haven't updated the Changes and the META.yml file. This wasn't done
for 5.13.9, maybe it only needs to happen afterwards and
release_managers_guide.pod is wrong.

own). Doing it like Jesse Vincent in

Porting/release_managers_guide.pod: Module::CoreList has no META.yml file
During my in-progress release:

dist/Module-CoreList/lib/Module/CoreList.pm:$VERSION = '2.44_01';
dist/Module-CoreList/lib/Module/CoreList.pm: 'Module::CoreList' => '2.44_01',
It doesn't have a META.yml anymore, instead a MYMETA.yml is generated
for us. So the bit that told us to update it in
Porting/release_managers_guide.pod was out of date.
