It's more forgiving
For core modules, the normalization is problematic, as different repos have different perl versios, e.g. Leap still has v5.26 while Tumbleweed has v5.40, but sometimes we want to use newer perl modules in Leap, so the spec has to work for multiple perl versions. By specifying --perl-version 5.040000 you can say that all modules that are in perl core v5.40 should not be normalized. That way we can go on with normalizing all other modules and take care of the perl package itself later.
No other d:l:p modules depend on it, so likely not causing much trouble
This makes it less problematic for the case when the Provides still has
0.034
and Requires would have
0.34.0
This would be unresolvable because 0.034 (or 0.34) is smaller than 0.34.0.

Should be used if a new version is smaller then the old
remove some modules not in d:l:p anymore
The file itself should also be generated, if it's not yet there. Will work on that.
Ideally we would do what the CPAN indexer does ( needs research), but overriding in cpanspec.yml for the rare exceptions is good enough for now.
