perl: Adding a new translation has a dependency on perl

[mpkorstanje]

🤔 What's the problem you've observed?

When a contributor updates gherkin-languages.json they'll run make copy-gherkin-languages to copy this file and/or generate derived for each implementation. This process should be light weight only depend on a few tools such as jq, however for Perl, this process currently depends on Perl.

✨ Do you have a proposal for making it better?

Consider using jq instead of perl to generate Languages.pm instead. For example see:

@ehuelsmann might be good to pick this up in combination with https://github.com/cucumber/gherkin/issues/32

This problem would be solved by using the sames solution as the one i suggested in #32. I guess I could try to generate valid Perl from inside jq, but I wonder if that's worth the effort, or that we're really trying to solve the wrong problem here...

Perhaps, let's try to work this out in #32.
