#10833: boost::async should support auto scheduling (launch deferred)?

------------------------------+----------------------
 One of the design choices for std::async() default launch policy was to
 allow the OS scheduler to decide whether or not to launch a new thread or
 remain on the same thread (presumably based on available system
 resources).
 Boost::async() does not seem to support this default auto scheduling yet?
 It seems to be launching as many threads as tasks.
