Subject: [PATCH] ci: bump actions and use perl-versions@v2 for dynamic matrix
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- actions/checkout: v1/@master → v6
- linux: replace hardcoded 17-version matrix with perl-actions/perl-versions@v2
  dynamic discovery (since 5.8, with devel)
- linux: add quick test gate job before full matrix
- macos/windows: bump checkout only (platform-specific perl stays as-is)
