Vim has features to adjust the indentation automatically, but not
to break up lines of code. If that suits you, see
:help indent-expression
in the vim docs. (That is a short entry, and the docs do not say a lot
about it. The most useful pointer in the section I suggest may be to
the examples.)
If you want to do more than adjust the indentation, it may be
easier to call perltidy to do the work.
