Description
## What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?
Boxed systems cannot be used with `IntoSystem`. This means that they can't use `IntoSystem::pipe` or any of the other related functions. This is especially useful for downstream crates relying on user-provided type erased systems.
## What solution would you like?
Implement `System` for `Box` and both `System` and `ReadOnlySystem` for `Box`
## What alternative(s) have you considered?

Research direction
Start by locating the System and ReadOnlySystem trait definitions and the IntoSystem APIs mentioned in the issue. Check the existing trait implementations around boxed or type-erased systems, then verify that the requested boxed types work with IntoSystem::pipe and related functions.
