build: Conditional check for C++11 and add ability to use system's boost instead of bundled version
1. C++11 is enabled by default and can be disabled with
--without-c++11 (or --with-c++11=no)
2. Use of system's boost libraries can be requested with
--with-system-boost. By default, the bundled version of boost is used
when necessary.

+# SYNOPSIS
+#
+# AX_BOOST_BASE([MINIMUM-VERSION], [ACTION-IF-FOUND], [ACTION-IF-NOT-FOUND])
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+#
+# Test for the Boost C++ libraries of a particular version (or newer)
+#
+# If no path to the installed boost library is given the macro searchs
+# under /usr, /usr/local, /opt and /opt/local and evaluates the
+# $BOOST_ROOT environment variable. Further documentation is available at
+# <http://randspringer.de/boost/index.html>.
+#
+# This macro calls:
+#
+# AC_SUBST(BOOST_CPPFLAGS) / AC_SUBST(BOOST_LDFLAGS)
+#
+# And sets:
+#
+# HAVE_BOOST
