[Buildroot] [PATCH v2, 2/2] boost: thread needs atomic if GCC hasn't lock-free

When gcc has not always lock-free atomic ints:
 - lockfree boost::atomic_flag : no

boost thread needs boost atomic:
output/host/usr/bin/nios2-linux-readelf -d output/staging/usr/lib/libboost_thread.so

Dynamic section at offset 0x2cee0 contains 32 entries:
  Tag        Type                         Name/Value
 0x00000001 (NEEDED)                     Shared library: [libboost_system.so.1.67.0]
 0x00000001 (NEEDED)                     Shared library: [libboost_atomic.so.1.67.0]

Changes v1 -> v2 (after review of Thomas Petazzoni):
 - issue was not related to bug 64735 but to lock-free atomic ints so
   add a patch to toolchain/Config.in to get this information in a
   dedicated variable and use it in boost
