Chatted with Adam in our matrix channel. The culprit is very likely the goto &$AUTOLOAD https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/blob/master/backend/console_proxy.pm#L55 which implicitly uses @_.
Adam is working on a fix.

https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst/pull/2075 should fix this plus a bunch of others that showed up after this was fixed. Thanks to @tinita for all the guidance.
