given(): remove support for lexical $_

Programming / Compilers / PERL - David Mitchell [iabyn.com] - 2 October 2015 11:23 UTC

There is dead code that used to allow

my $_;

given ($foo) { # lexical $_ aliased to $foo here }

Now that lexical $_ has been removed, remove the code. I've left the signatures of the newFOO() functions unchanged; they just expect a target of 0 to always be passed now.
