Summary:                    FindBoost.cmake does not provide a way to use
libraries built by boost with the runtime-debugging=off bjam parameter
Description: 
FindBoost.cmake unconditionally adds the "d" portion to the debug ABI tag
indicating that it wants the versions of the libraries using the debug runtime. 
When bjam is provided the runtime-debugging=off command-line option, the release
version of the runtime is used instead

Steps to Reproduce: 
1) bjam link=static runtime-link=shared runtime-debugging=off (produces a binary
on windows with no "-*d-" in the name, e.g.
libboost_date_time-vc110-mt-d-1_55.lib)
2) use FindBoost as follows:
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON)
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_RUNTIME OFF)
find_package(Boost 1.55.0 REQUIRED COMPONENTS date_time)



Additional Information: 
I propose the inclusion of a Boost_USE_RUNTIME_DEBUGGING option to mirror that
provided to bjam with conditionally skips the addition of "d" to the debug ABI
tag:

+if(Boost_USE_RUNTIME_DEBUGGING)
  if(WIN32)
    if(MSVC OR "${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER}" MATCHES "icl"
            OR "${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER}" MATCHES "icpc")
      set(_boost_DEBUG_ABI_TAG "${_boost_DEBUG_ABI_TAG}g")
    endif()
  endif()
+endif()
