With the current TestPerl class, this test could be written as:
        self.module_test("Time::HiRes", "Time::HiRes::usleep(1_000_000);")
A long oneliner script could be written with a multiline layout, like this:
        self.module_test("Time::HiRes", "use strict;" +
                                        "use warnings;" +
                                        "Time::HiRes::usleep(1_000_000);")
So, we don't need to handle sample_perl_*.pl scripts.
Same thing with Lua.
