perlfunc: Clarify verbatim table
When I read what was here before this patch, I thought there was a typo, as there was no entry in column 1 for several rows. Instead, what was meant was that the item in column 1 row 1 was supposed to be dittoed into the following rows. I used the solution employed in Camel 4, which is to repeat that item in each row it applies to.
