Automate process of using gcc5:

* SConstruct will set ABI based on ubuntu flavor
* Script to bring in packages for various ubuntu flavors
* Script to bring in packages for various fedora 22
* Remove unneeded environment variable from travis
* Script to build boost with correct API flags
* `--static` flag to control static linking
