Use tools.get_env instead?

It looks like tools.get_env (aka conans.util.env_reader.get_env) doesn't really do anything when the default is None or a str as it is in this case, it seems like the purpose is to coerce the type when default is a bool, int, float, or list.

#5575 will fix this conflict. By the way I don't fully understand why it complains about a build requirement of libbacktrace, build_requirements shouldn't be evaluated since a pre built package is available. |

Fixes Issue conan-io#5569 A bug in cmake-gui would have it sometimes set CXX to empty instead of leaving it undefined. CXX detection in the boost recipe would use the blank value and fail to build. Now we treat empty the same as undefined and move on to e.g. xcrun detection for these properties.
This is a limitation in Conan when using only one profile: the graph is expanding build-requires in the same context and they can conflict 😞 . Mid-term we will start to use two-profiles in CCI, so these issues should be gone. |

The prior referenced pull requests have all merged, I've rebased this PR to incorporate the updates. |

I think this is the issue on the CMake side https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/21449 (already fixed via https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/merge_requests/6151 for 3.21.0).

Specify library name and version: boost/1.76.0 (Really all versions)
This is also a good place to share with all of us why you are submitting this PR (specially if it is a new addition to ConanCenter): is it a dependency of other libraries you want to package? Are you the author of the library? Thanks!
On MacOS, when specifying options other than those used in the prebuilt variants on conan center
and using
build=missingboost was failing to build. Conan was invoked from CMake which wasconfigured from cmake-gui, a common developer workflow in our environment.
conan-center hook activated.
