[cctbxbb] testing newer versions of boost

[Billy Poon]

Hey Rob,

Can you try the boost174 branch in cctbx_project? I added some changes for
building boost. This branch should work for Boost 1.72 (
https://dev.azure.com/bkp4/cctbx_project/_build/results?buildId=1833&view=results)
and 1.74 (
https://dev.azure.com/bkp4/cctbx_project/_build/results?buildId=1834&view=results).
I'm running a "Full" build for Boost 1.74.

The error is from not building all the source files for the filesystem
module. I add the extra files in
https://github.com/cctbx/cctbx_project/commit/5fa38c8433b52754f1360888f83384c9e4e237c6

I started testing this last year, but it looks like it should be fine.
