  Description     : a multi-AUTHORITY method for your classes

authority::shared allows you to indicate that your module is issued by
multiple authorities. The main use case for shared authorities is for
team projects. The team would designate a URI to represent the team as a
whole, e.g. http://www.perlrdf.org/. Releases can then be officially
stamped with the authority of the team using:
..
 use authority::shared q<http://www.perlrdf.org/>;
..
And users can check they have a module released by the official team
using:
..
  RDF::TakeOverTheWorld->AUTHORITY(q<http://www.perlrdf.org/>);
..
which will croak if package RDF::TakeOverTheWorld doesn't have the
specified authority.
