The postderef feature is no longer experimental
As proposed by RJBS.
The "5.24" feature bundle (and therefore C<< use v5.24 >>) now enable
postderef and postderef_qq.
I can't find any precedent for what to do with the relevant experimental::*
warnings category when an experimental feature graduates to acceptance. I
have elected to leave the category in place, so that code doing C<< no
warnings "experimental::postderef" >> will continue to work. This means that
C<< use warnings "experimental::postderef" >> is also accepted, but has no
effect.
