It would be nice if boost would export and document to_utf8 and from_utf8
functions (possibly from string utils *headers only* library).

Currently, I use following workaround, but I believe those two useful
utility functions deserve better:

#define BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_NO_LIB		1
#include <boost/program_options/detail/convert.hpp>
#include <boost/program_options/detail/utf8_codecvt_facet.hpp>
#undef BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS_NO_LIB

#include <libs/program_options/src/convert.cpp>
#include <libs/program_options/src/utf8_codecvt_facet.cpp>
