FindBoost: Add suport for custom namespaces
When building boost with an alternate namespace the libraries generated will have a different naming convention. This is often done to ensure no symbol conflicts with external libraries built against a different version of boost. If the namespace used is "myprivateboost::" instead of "boost::" then the libraries built will be named myprivateboost_foo instead of boost_foo. Add an option to specify a custom namespace used to alter the library names that get searched for.
