[perl #84358] Removing AutoLoader from DynaLoader

DynaLoader currently uses Autoloader. This was an optimization going
back to perl 5.000 in 1994. However, this implementation detail leaks in
a rather troublesome way.

DynaLoader is used by subclassing it. Because of this, when you call
some undefined method on an instance of any class that derives from
DynaLoader (directly or indirectly) you do not get this error message:

    Can't locate object method "undefined_method" via package "Foo"

But this rather cryptic error:

    Can't locate auto/Foo/undefined_m.al in @INC (@INC contains:
/etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0
/usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10
/usr/local/lib/site_perl .)

This is totally incomprehensible for anyone who isn't familiar with
what's going on. It was rather a premature optimization anyway if you
ask me, on my machine it's just 66 non-empty lines of code that are
being autoloaded.

Therefore, I think AutoLoader should be removed from DynaLoader.

Move dprofpp from utils/ to ext/Devel-DProf/bin

This way the script can easily be part of the CPAN distribution, where
ExtUtils::MakeMaker will do its shebang munging.

takes care of creating `dprofpp.com' instead of just `dprofpp' on VMS, which
ExtUtils::MakeMaker doesn't seem to be up to yet.

To make this work, some things had to be moved from script-generation-time to
run-time:

 * location of the stty binary
   This is probably better for binary perl distributions anyway

 * Devel::DProf version detection

   the script, but is now determined by actually loading Devel::DProf.

   In order for this to work it's necessary to be able to load DProf without
   causing profiling to start. For that, starting of the profiler has been moved
   to `import', causing

     require Devel::DProf;

   to not trigger it anymore, while
