Fix cmake to link extra filesystem library with older versions of gcc and clang

t.knopff requested to merge old_compilers_fix into develop

This MR fixes build errors with older versions of the GCC and Clang compilers, which require linking an additional filesystem library (should also fix #16 (closed)).

The solution for Clang is not 100% waterproof because Clang can use different implementations of the standard library (libstdc++ from GCC or libc++ from LLVM itself). This fix chooses what is default for the supported platforms (Linux, Mac, Windows) but if non-standard configurations are used, this may fail.

This resolves #16 (closed)
