boost::any missing free swap function

Description
Given that a free swap function is the "official" interface used by generic algorithms, this is a rather shocking omission (though I know the status of swap wasn't settled at the time of any's design). Suggestion: add
friend void swap(any& x, any& y) { x.swap(y); }
to the body of any and update the docs accordingly.

Shouldn't this function be documented?
