Bug#854046: dh-make-perl: Incorrect dependencies created from List::Util

Package: dh-make-perl
Version: 0.93
Severity: normal

dh-make-perl creates this weird dependency line if there is
a dependency on List::Util:

 libperl5.24:amd64 (>= 1.45) | libscalar-list-utils-perl (>= 1.45) | perl-base (>= 1.45)

I believe the dependency on perl >= 1.45 is actually a reference to
libscalar-list-utils-perl.  I have noticed this when packaging like:

    dh-make-perl --pkg-perl --cpan Dist::Zilla::Role::PluginBundle::PluginRemover

which should be enough to replicate the issue.
