Hello All,

I've discovered that current typedef crc_xmodem_type uses wrong poly.

Current release and master branch:
>  typedef crc_optimal<16, 0x8408, 0, 0, true, true>         crc_xmodem_type;

Should be (ref:
http://reveng.sourceforge.net/crc-catalogue/16.htm#crc.cat-bits.16)
> typedef crc_optimal<16, 0x1021, 0, 0, false, false>

Develop branch already have some changes which address this error (for
ex. https://github.com/boostorg/crc/commit/328bf50f666c463901e2179aa2d890916c3b66ed),
but master and boost release does not.

Who currently owns boost::crc and can fix this issue?

Thank you.
