Summary: [config] evc4 port

Initial Comment:
This patch is a port for evc3/4 targeting Windows CE.
Reason for the changes in auto_link.hpp: STLport with
evc4 cannot be compiled in _STLP_DEBUG mode; the
compiler issues wrong ARM code and _STLP_DEBUG mode
cannot be used with evc4 ARM. I also introduced a new
file wince.hpp in boost/config/platform/, since the
defines in the _WIN32_WCE part got too big.

Hi,

Michael:
Thanks for your effor to make Boost more Windows
CE-friendly. Some time ago, I also started to use Boost with
eVC++/VC++8.

John:
VC++ 8.0 brings the whole set of compilers for Winodows CE
platform: clarm.exe, clmips.exe, etc.
Here is a list with preprocessor macros to check target arch:

Here is a table that explains how to map devie arch from
eVC++ 3/4 to VC++ 8.0:

Also, biuld system should define appropriate symbols:
-D _ARM_ -D ARM -D _arm_
-D _MIPS_ -D MIPS -D _mips_
etc.

Cheers

The only change I made is to rename "evc8" to "msvc8-arm",
but since I don't know exactly how to differentiate
processors in msvc8 I simply put "msvc8-arm". A possible
msvc8 porter has to decide that.

I updated the patch since I found another issue: there's no
static C runtime for Windows CE, so autolinking always
chooses "-gdp" now. Please disregard the first patch.

I notice that the patches are arm-specific, surely VC8 can
be used to target other processors?

John.
