alps @2.3.0: Boost Source not Found

Port: alps

Description

​https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-10.12_x86_64-builder/builds/122481/steps/install-port/logs/stdio 

CMake Error at config/FindBoostSrc.cmake:106 (message):
  Boost Source not Found
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  config/FindBoostForALPS.cmake:75 (find_package)
  CMakeLists.txt:294 (find_package)

Looks like the alps port used to use a bundled copy of boost. It was then changed to use the boost port when alps was updated to 2.3.0. Maybe boost has been updated to a newer version that is no longer compatible with alps. Alps 2.3.0 still ships a bundled copy of boost. We should use that. It is recommended for projects to use their own bundled copy of boost because the developers of boost do not value backward compatibility.

alps: Use bundled boost

Closes: #60825

And don't change CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH. Not sure why that's been in
the port since it was added in 874356358aa9ecfa7bfa228885d7dde9fb681e06.
