Brief problem description
With B2 5.3.0, the --layout=system option doesn't seem to do anything, at least on windows/MSVC.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Get boost sources, run b2 --layout=system, observe library file names.
Actual behavior summary
When I try building boost 1.87.0 from source with b2 --layout=system all the libraries are named like: libboost_locale-vc143-mt-gd-x32-1_87.lib as if I was using --layout=versioned. B2 5.2.1 gives the expected libboost_locale.lib filenames.
This breaks the packaging scripts of the boost package on https://github.com/conan-io/conan-center-index.
Expected behavior summary
I think --layout=system should work as described in b2 --help.
