boost: context needs thread if gcc < 6

Commit f3a483a81be43b0ff674400e11900605969f8f1c added -std=c++11 to
boost build if context is selected and gcc is at least 4.7 however it
has the side effect that cc-tool fails to find boost_system with the
following error if context and system is enabled with a gcc greater
than 6:

configure:16312: /home/dawncrow/buildroot-test/scripts/instance-0/output/host/bin/x86_64-linux-g++ -o conftest -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64  -Os   -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/home/dawncrow/buildroot-test/scripts/instance-0/output/host/x86_64-buildroot-linux-musl/sysroot/usr/include  -L/home/dawncrow/buildroot-test/scripts/instance-0/output/host/x86_64-buildroot-linux-musl/sysroot/usr/lib conftest.o -lboost_system -latomic >&5
conftest.o: In function `boost::system::error_category::std_category::equivalent(int, std::error_condition const&) const':
conftest.cpp:(.text._ZNK5boost6system14error_category12std_category10equivalentEiRKSt15error_condition[_ZNK5boost6system14error_category12std_category10equivalentEiRKSt15error_condition]+0x37): undefined reference to `boost::system::detail::generic_category_instance'

This error is related to the fact that since boost 1.68 and commit
https://github.com/boostorg/system/commit/7b6dcf6ac668e24f11ec5dbc68d1fa0248d964df,
boost system headers are now C++14 "by default" with gcc above 6:
- https://github.com/boostorg/system/issues/24
- https://github.com/boostorg/system/issues/26
- https://lists.boost.org/Archives/boost/2018/08/242770.php

So when building with gcc > 6, cc-tool thinks that boost has
generic_category_instance but because boost was compiled with
std=c++11, this function will not be in the library causing a link error

Instead of "hacking" even more boost, just remove -std=c++11 from
boost.mk and select BOOST_THREAD with gcc lower than 6
