Update Boost.Integer meta-programming classes to work with intmax_t where possible - ie to be 64-bit clean. Added quickbook based docs - updated as necessary. Removed old html docs. [SVN r57926]

<p>
The class templates in <a href="../../../../../boost/integer/static_min_max.hpp" target="_top">&lt;boost/integer/static_min_max.hpp&gt;</a>
provide a compile-time evaluation of the minimum or maximum of two integers.
These facilities are useful for generic programming problems.

<p>
The four class templates provide the combinations for finding the minimum
or maximum of two signed or <code class="literal">unsigned</code> (<code class="literal">long</code>)
parameters, Value1 and Value2, at compile-time. Each template has a single
static data member, <code class="literal">value</code>, which is set to the respective
minimum or maximum of the template's parameters.
