/cc @grafikrobot as it's about boost libraries

maybe, it's worth to add some links to the official documents on how to add library into boost?

## Can we add package which are parts of bigger projects like Boost?

Sadly no. There have been many efforts in the past and we feel it's not sustainable given the number of combinations of libraries and version. See #14660 for recent discussions.
