Reference to GetModuleHandleW when building for windows-api=store

Description

Line 63 in boost/thread/win32/thread_primitives.hpp references GetModuleHandleW, which is not available under the Windows Store API. However, when building boost for our Store app, this line was not among the ones #ifdefed away, and thus caused a compile error. We trivially fixed it by commenting it out, but that is obviously not a portable solution.

Here's the build command we used:

b2 -j8 toolset=msvc windows-api=store threading=multi address-model=64 architecture=x86 --with-thread --with-chrono --with-date_time cxxflags="/AI\"C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0/VC/lib/store/refererences\"" define=BOOST_THREAD_VERSION=4 define=BOOST_THREAD_PROVIDES_EXECUTORS stage

Perhaps this is not actually an issue, and we just did something wrong, but I figured I'd report it to make sure.

I don't know what windows-api=store means. Any patch that make it work for this target is welcome as soon as the patch is done conditionally to this target.
