Description
(1.84 gcc 13.2)
upgrading boost from 1.75 to 1.84 breaks existing code that boils down to:
````c++
#include
struct Foo
{
Foo(std::string_view f) {}
Foo(const std::string& f) {}
};
int main() {
Foo{std::string_view()}; // works
Foo{boost::core::string_view()}; // fails
//Foo{boost::beast::http::fields{}.find("")->value()}; // same failure, works in 1.75
}
````

it _used_ to work with `BOOST_BEAST_USE_STD_STRING_VIEW`. how do I get it to use `std::string_view` like before?
