[perl #48493] [CAGE] Parrot::Configure::Step: Explicitly pass all arguments to all methods

For no reason more profound than ease of editing, when I went to require that each of 6 Parrot::Configure::Step methods be passed $conf explicitly, I put that argument first. Which of course makes it look much like a Parrot::Configure method call. And since the Parrot::Configure object constructe
