#13342: Support out-of-tree builds

 Currently when you run `./boostrap.sh` it builds b2 in the source tree.
 There doesn't seem to be any way to change this.

 If possible it would be nice to support fully out-of-source trees so that
 you can do a build without modifying the source tree at all.

 One way to do this would be to switch from b2 to CMake (two birds etc).
