schwern/perl5i — Issue #213: Add a REPL

It'd be nice if Perl5i included an easy way to get a REPL running, e.g. `perl5i -r` or `ipb` (like `irb` from Ruby). There are problems with reserving a command line flag, of course, and `ipb` is just ugly. `re.pl` is cute, but it doesn't ship with Perl5i.

I think this *is* in the scope of Perl5i. (I think it's in the scope for Perl itself!)
