[boost] IO Formatting Manipulators

I have written an outputter deducer for my library that can identify the 
type of the data being outputted and generate a default outputter structure 
for it without the need for a rewrite of the library as I initially thought, 
allowing the much simpler:

   int nD[ 2 ][ 3 ] = { ... };
   std::cout << boost::io::formatob( nD );

At the moment, I have this working for GCC only, since it makes heavy use of 
partial specialization and integral constants. I am looking at getting this 
working on the Borland compiler. I have not tested it on VC7.1, because I do 
not have it yet.

I am also looking at providing better GCC support and making some general 
improvements. This is not a source post as there is still work to be done.

Hopefully, I should have more of the documentation done as well.

Regards,
Reece
