Subject: bug#55179: [WIP PATCH 00/30] gnu: rakudo: Update to 2022.04 and packages too.

Given that it's been almost 2 years I've gone ahead and pushed the
patches.

Looking at some sources upstream, to the best of my understanding
PERL6LIB should be changed to RAKULIB, but the %out/share/perl6 path
should stay, which doesn't make a lot of sense to me. It wasn't clear if
%out/share/perl6 was on purpose or because it was already in use and not
worth trying to change.

I tracked this down to moarvm but I didn't check further than that to
see if I could do anything about it.
