Use of boost to calculate the normal distribution and others

I did some tests and using boost for statistical functions has enormous
advantages, as the implementations in Boost are optimal, use automatic
promotion to improve te precision and are very well maintained respect to the
native implementations.

I am adding a proof of concept for some functions (gamma and the normal
distribution). The results are good but are not too different from the native
versions.

This is unfinished work, I am not planning to work on this anymore but I leave
the patches JIC someone wants to take over.
