Control log_level of Boost.Test via ctest on Windows

[redboltz]

ctest runs executables that are using Boost.Test. The executables take arguments like --log_level=all. I couldn't find a easy way to provide the arguments via ctest.

Boost.Test can handle both boost test options and user program options.

./a.out --log_level=all -- arg1 arg2

After -- , I can pass the arguments for the program.

I expect the similar functionality to ctest. e.g)

ctest -V -- --log_level=all -- arg1 arg2

However, there isn't.

So I used the following hack.

It works.

However, I tired to do the same thing on windows but I couldn't do that.

Here is a part of code I tried.

It remains in master for future.
