Perl scripts: eliminate "Useless interpolation" warnings Eliminate warnings of Perl Critic from src/tools. Backpatch-through: master
I don't understand this commit. The buildfarm members crake and koel regularly run the perl critic checks and have not complained. See for example from before this change: <https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_stage_log.pl?nm=koel&dt=2024-09-15%2003%3A34%3A02&stg=perl-check>
The change doesn't seem to have had any discussion either. This particular warning is surely a very low level (i.e. fairly unimportant) one, of the type we normally ignore. If some version of perlcritic has raised it to severity 5 then the correct action IMNSHO would be to add an exception for it to the perlcriticrc, like we do for ProhibitLeadingZeros. If not, then perhaps you can explain how you got the warnings.
