Details

As it can be seen in Bug 1593703 some clang versions are broken, they have some bug that impair our static analysis system to work.
froydnj had an idea to stop the configuration of the build and assert a message to the end user when a clang version that is not compatible with out system is used.
We should do blacklist system and for the moment there are only two versions of clang that are buggy, 5 and 6, and shouldn't be used for the static-analysis.
