Subject: Support XS files in C++
Module::Build needs a way to portably handle XS files that need to be compiled with a C++ compiler. Encode::Detect contains one such XS file. It has a workaround that is specific to the GCC compiler, but this means that module is not portable to Windows.

This requires better support for C++ in ExtUtils::ParseXS and ExtUtils::CBuilder. However, Module::Build also needs support for passing arguments to ExtUtils::ParseXS the same way that ExtUtils::MakeMaker already does so the "-C++" flag can be used.
