Re: Boost website changes and .'cxxstd'

I can look into it. But needs to make the requirements clear.

So, the task is to show *C++ standard minimum level: C++nn* for Standard
attribute for each lib in this page: C++ standard minimum level: C++nn ?
And we could replace nn with the actual number by checking the *cxxstd* key
in a library's meta info json file.

Please let me know if I got it right.
