Implemented as a post-test hook, this plugin writes a specfile after
every successful test run. The content is also written to the terminal.
As a side effect, the timestamps of the written specfiles reflect the
linear order of all dependencies.
WWAARRNNIINNGG:: This code is just a small demo how to use the plugin system of
the CPAN shell, not a full fledged spec file writer. Do not expect new
features in this plugin.

The target directory to store the spec files in can be set using "dir" as
in
o conf plugin_list push CPAN::Plugin::Specfile=dir,/tmp/specfiles-000042
The default directory for this is the "plugins/CPAN::Plugin::Specfile"
directory in the _c_p_a_n___h_o_m_e directory.
