Subject: Suggestion: Weaken test dependency on MooseX::Role::WithOverloading

As Moosex::Role::WithOverloading is mostly superseded by native mechanics in Moose, it doesn't make much sense to compulsorily continue requiring end users have it installed for tests.

It makes sense in regards to having complete interop testing, but do end users really need that?

And the added dependency weight just isn't really worth it.

MXRP is currently the #2 weighted reason for MXRWO being high upriver ( and in turn, the #1 reason for `aliased`'s river position )

https://metacpan.org/requires/distribution/MooseX-Role-WithOverloading?sort=[[0,1]]

Dropping the hard dep and making it Test::Needs' triggered only would probably be better.

The one test that uses it uses Test::Needs, so the intent was that it would *not* be pulled in as a requirement, but only tested against when already installed. This is easy to fix!
