liberror-perl: move to meta-perl

The upstream maintainer for Error has deprecated it for quite some time [1].
The only dependency in oe-core was coreutils-ptest.

[YOCTO #15461]

[1] https://metacpan.org/pod/Error#WARNING

    Using the "Error" module is no longer recommended due to the black-magical
    nature of its syntactic sugar, which often tends to break. Its maintainers
    have stopped actively writing code that uses it, and discourage people from
    doing so. See the "SEE ALSO" section below for better recommendations [2].

    SEE ALSO
    --------

    See Exception::Class for a different module providing Object-Oriented
    exception handling, along with a convenient syntax for declaring hierarchies
    for them. It doesn't provide Error's syntactic sugar of try { ... },
    catch { ... }, etc. which may be a good thing or a bad thing based on what
    you want. (Because Error's syntactic sugar tends to break.)

    Error::Exception aims to combine Error and Exception::Class "with correct
    stringification".

    TryCatch and Try::Tiny are similar in concept to Error.pm only providing a
    syntax that hopefully breaks less.
