I have since then done some research, and it appears there have been some attempts at standardizing exit codes (see perhaps sysexit.h) and that the bash shell uses the same encoding.

No, this is not some convention that Perl uses and now bash also uses. See wait(2). It is part of the operating system that Perl just exposes rather directly.
