ALE offers a few ways to check Perl code. Checking code with `perl` is
disabled by default, as `perl` code cannot be checked without executing it.
Specifically, we use the `-c` flag to see if `perl` code compiles. This does
not execute all of the code in a file, but it does run `BEGIN` and `CHECK`
blocks. See `perl --help` and https://stackoverflow.com/a/12908487/406224

See |g:ale_linters|.
