Subject: minor fix for perltrap.pod

minor fix for perltrap.pod

perltrap says 'Variables begin with "$" or "@" in Perl.' (twice)
without addressing the possibility of "%". This patch fixes it.

Of course, variables can start with "*" (typeglobs) or no special
symbol (filehandles, functions) too. Should that be mentioned as
well?
