Added implementation of inter-process atomics.
The inter-process atomics have ipc_ prefixes: ipc_atomic, ipc_atomic_ref and ipc_atomic_flag. These types are similar to their unprefixed counterparts with the following distinctions: - The operations are provided with an added precondition that is_lock_free() returns true. - All operations, including waiting/notifying operations, are address-free, so the types are suitable for inter-process communication. - The new has_native_wait_notify() operation and always_has_native_wait_notify static constant allow to test if the target platform has native support for address-free waiting/notifying operations. If it does not, a generic implementation is used based on a busy wait. - The new set of capability macros added. The macros are named BOOST_ATOMIC_HAS_NATIVE_<T>_IPC_WAIT_NOTIFY and indicate whether address-free waiting/notifying operations are supported natively for a given type. Additionally, to unify interface and implementation of different components, the has_native_wait_notify() operation and always_has_native_wait_notify static constant were added to non-IPC atomic types as well. Added BOOST_ATOMIC_HAS_NATIVE_<T>_WAIT_NOTIFY capability macros to indicate native support for inter-thread waiting/notifying operations. Also, added is_lock_free() and is_always_lock_free to atomic_flag. This commit adds implementation, docs and tests.
