ModPerl::PerlRun - Run unaltered CGI scripts under mod_perl

# httpd.conf
PerlModule ModPerl::PerlRun
Alias /perl-run/ /home/httpd/perl/
<Location /perl-run>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlResponseHandler ModPerl::PerlRun
PerlOptions +ParseHeaders
Options +ExecCGI
</Location>

META: document that for now we don't chdir() into the script's dir, because it affects the whole process under threads. ModPerl::PerlRunPrefork should be used by those who run only under prefork MPM.

BEGIN BlocksWhen running under the ModPerl::PerlRun handler BEGIN blocks behave as follows:
BEGIN blocks defined in scripts running under the ModPerl::PerlRun handler are executed on each and every request.BEGIN blocks defined in modules loaded from scripts running under ModPerl::PerlRun (and which weren't already loaded prior to the request) are executed on each and every request only if those modules declare no package. If a package is declared BEGIN blocks will be run only the first time each module is loaded, since those modules don't get reloaded on subsequent requests.See also BEGIN blocks in mod_perl handlers.
CHECK and INIT BlocksSame as normal mod_perl handlers.
END BlocksSame as ModPerl::Registry.
