Re: [boost] dynamic_bitset documentation

The documentation is not yet complete in that regard, though it is on my
to-do list. Here's the current situation:

- In dynamic_bitset functions where an exception is thrown, the
  documentation says so.
- In functions that do not have a throw statement, the documentation
   says nothing.

So for completeness, I beleive two things need to be added:

- Throws clauses in functions that can indirectly throw, such
  as constructors. One complication: like the STL containers, the
  allocator is a template parameter... and the allocator requirements
  do not specify the kind of exception thrown :( Is there an
  "accepted" way to deal with this?

- "Throws: nothing" for the rest.
