I think it'd also be needed in hstore_plperl.c, jsonb_plperl.c. Putting the
include in plperl.h would keep that aspect transparent, because plperl_utils.h
includes plperl.h.

I don't think manually including all dependencies, even if it's just one, in
each of the six files currently using plperl_utils.h is a good approach.
