[boost] [shifted_ptr] STL required modifications

Ok,

If we comment out line 68 of shifted_ptr_test2.cpp in the sandbox and 
uncomment line 69 we will get a simplified version of the error messages we 
used to have with std::vector.  It is easier this way uncovering the 
required modifications necessary to make STL user-friendly with smart 
pointers.  I have also made shifted_allocator the way it should be.

Yes it is strange replacing pointers to nodes inside containers and I don't 
see an urgent need for it but this can help unobfusticating the standards 
regarding pointers to nodes.

Thanks,
-Phil
