  Log Message:
  -----------
  pod: eliminate references to `$a` and `$b` outside sort context

This causes confusion for new users when they get told to not use
those variables because of how they interact with sort and friends.

This changes them to `$x` and `$y`, and also changes nearby variables
to keep things consistent, such as `$c` -> `$z` and `@a` -> `@x`.

I dind't touch `perlfilter.pod`, since that comes from the
Filter dist, which is upstream CPAN.
