Support for NVIDIA CUDA C++ Compiler

Reported by: joel.falcou@… Owned by: John Maddock
Milestone: Boost 1.43.0 Component: config
Version: Boost 1.42.0 Severity: Problem
Keywords: GPU NVIDIA nvcc CUDA Cc:

Description

Some boost component can't compile when compiled with the nvidia c++ compiler for GPU systems. This patch add nvcc as a proper compiler in config/ so the proper BOOST_NO_XXX macro are set/unset. The patch also provide a BOOST_GPU_ENABLED macro that resolves as host device and allow any boost function to be compiled inside a CUDA kernel.

Note that this patch is not the only one required for proper GPU support bu tit fixes a lot of annoying errors in low level components like MPL, Fusion, type_traits and similar.
