get_error_info returns raw pointer instead of shared_ptr (breaking change)

Browse Source 
diagnostic_information can now be called with boost::exception or std::exception object.
BOOST_THROW_EXCEPTION can now be used even if exceptions are disabled.
added functions: current_exception_diagnostic_information, current_exception_cast
documentation updated to match.

<p>This function returns a string value that is automatically composed from the string representations of all <span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span> objects stored in a boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> through <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator&lt;&lt;</a></span>, along with other diagnostic information relevant to the exception.</p>
<p>A string value that contains varying amount of implementation-specific diagnostic information about the passed exception object:</p>
<div><ul><li>If E can be statically converted to boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span>, the returned value contains the string representations of all <span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span> objects stored in the boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span> through <span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception_operator_shl.html">operator&lt;&lt;</a></span>, along with other diagnostic information relevant to the exception. If e can be dynamically converted to std::exception, the returned value also contains the what() string.</li>
<li>Otherwise, if E can be statically converted std::exception:<div><ul><li>if e can be dynamically converted to boost::exception, the returned value is the same as if E could be statically converted to boost::<span class="RenoLink"><a href="exception.html">exception</a></span>;</li>

<p>The string representation of each <span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span> object is deduced by a function call that is bound at the time the <span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info.html">error_info</a></span>&lt;Tag,T&gt; template is instantiated. The following overload resolutions are attempted in order:</p>

<li>Unqualified call to to_string(x.<span class="RenoLink"><a href="error_info_value.html">value</a></span>()) (the return value is expected to be of type std::string.)</li>
