MSVC minimum version and clang identification

See merge request !277

Update ALF syntax element with specification

See merge request !278

- fail to build when MSVC version too low
- properly identify clang as compiler

Dereferencing a nullptr should be avoided, even if the passed object is never used.
It may not be the most elegant solution to pass an empty list object, but it should work.
