[Bug 1078438] Templated types are causing "Could not find a typemap for C type"

--- Comment #2 from Petr Pisar <ppisar at redhat.com> ---
ExtUtils::ParseXS::Utilities::tidy_type() does not parse and normalize some C++
type declarations properly:

# perl -MExtUtils::ParseXS::Utilities=tidy_type -e 'print
tidy_type(q{std::vector< unsigned int >}), qq{\n}'
std::vector< unsigned int >

While the output should be:

std::vector<unsigned int>

This is fixed by upstream perl commit:

    EU::ParseXS: Attempt to canonicalize C++ types in tidy_type

    Includes moving tidy_type to ExtUtils::Typemaps where it seems to
    belong. It's a pretty poor canonicalizer, but better than nothing!

The key change is:

+  # for templated C++ types, do some bit of flawed canonicalization
+  # wrt. templates at least
+  if (/[<>]/) {
+    s/\s*([<>])\s*/$1/g;
+    s/>>/> >/g;
+  }

in tidy_type().
