0011445: Eliminate the need for Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
This ticket is for eliminating the need for users of FindBoost to specify Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS.

The path forward to solve this problem is to implement 0008396 (FIND_LIBRARY with version specification) and then modify FindBoost to use the new feature.
>> If you have a particular issue that you think should be fixed for
>> inclusion in 2.8.4, please bring it up now.
>
> Could you guys have a chat with the Boost guys and fix the "future
> safety" of FindBoost.cmake somehow? Fiddling with ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
> is really a pain on a build farm.

At the very least, the updated version I attach adds the missing new version of boost, and also simplifies the "remove system component if under 1.35" check.

Actually, for 2.8.4 version 1.46 should also be added, since it will be released early in February, according to the Boost timeline.

Ryan,
I have merged in your patch and also added 1.46 to the search list. Thanks.

The CMake developers have deferred Issue 0008396 (not enough time before 2.8.4) so resolution of this issue has also been deferred.

Backlogging this issue until Issue 0008396 is addressed.
