perl: Enable threading on darwin
Perl on darwin (and any other sane platform) has a pretty good threading support, enable it. As it turns out, we were building non-multithreaded perl on all systems, since glibc was not part of the stdenv anymore: nix-repl> pkgs = import <nixpkgs> {} nix-repl> pkgs.stdenv ? glibc false meaning that the comments were incorrect. Thus, clear up the confusion and remove the misleading comments, while enabling multithreading by default. The builds will fail on unsupported platforms, and in this case the only place is the bootstrap, where we already force non-multithreaded perl. As a consequence of the above, this change will cause the full rebuild of stdenv on all platforms, including linux.
