milestone To Be Determined → Boost 1.60.0

This commit contains a fix for this issue as well as the addition of the VERY-EXPERIMENTAL promise::set_executor and packaged_task::set_executor. These should be replaced by constructor.

After some more thoughts, I believe that then(cont) should result in the continuation been called on an unspecified thread of execution, as the Concurrency TS says.

If the user wants to use the same executor it could do

f.then(launch::executor, cont);

f.then(launch::inherit, cont);

See #11736 and #11737
