Add an `.editorconfig` file to the source repository

Description

EditorConfig helps developers define and maintain consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs. The EditorConfig project consists of a file format for defining coding styles and a collection of text editor plugins that enable editors to read the file format and adhere to defined styles. EditorConfig files are easily readibly and they work nicely with version control systems.

Currently EditorConfig has been used in Ruby, jQuery, and many other projects. It helps a lot in maintaining a consistent coding style. So I believe the Boost community might also be interested in this, since the coding style issue is always a problem for C++ projects.

No body will do anything about this until you get an agreement on the ML.
