Log:
A miscellaneous use of boost.

Sinc(x) is a simple function used in communications. boost
happens to use it for quaternion math. The implementation is
simple, however it looks fun to re-use the boost function
even if just to say we are using quaternion math somewhere ;).

The performance difference is not likely to be huge but JIC,
set up a specific Boost math policy to limit type promotion
with it's corresponding impact.
