Add erroroffset support to perltest.sh and fix discrepancies #549

Open

Description

@NWilson
  • perltest.sh would need to support outputting error offsets from the Perl messages
  • RunPerlTest would need to perform a "loose" diff on certain lines, to handle the fact that the Perl error messages won't have matching error codes
  • Migrate as many error cases as possible from testinput{2,5} → testinput{1,4}
  • Fix as many discrepancies as possible between the error offsets reported by Perl and PCRE2

There's no particular urgency to this. It would be nice though, perhaps when I have spare time and all the other more urgent tasks on my list are done.
