[dmitry-tokarev-nv]

What does the PR do?

Removed workaround to install libboost-dev.
Back to apt-get install. Since on Ubuntu 24.04 libboost-dev 1.83.0 is available to install with apt-get.
Kept the version to show that we satisfy the version requirement >= 1.78 for boost::span

I will wait on the CI to be linked. I would like to see x86, ARM, RHEL, and iGPU builds all pass with this change for approval.
