Too many changes to even summarize given the large version step.
Please see docs/ChangeLog in the rakudo repository for the list.
- Remove rakudo-fix-module-installation.diff as the fix is included
upstream.

%patchN.

reverting an offending change.
- Backport yet another fix for module packaging issues (included in the same file)
- Update backported fix to the real fix (see GitHub for explanation of this
weird sequence)
