Advance Compiler Settings page out-of-date

Type of issue

Outdated article

Description

This article needs to be updated with respect to modern .NET (i.e. Core and .NET 5+).

For example, <NoStandardLib> is documented here, but modern .NET seems to use <NoCompilerStandardLib>, which is on my default, since the corelib is not named mscorlib.dll for modern .NET.

Similarly, the default value of <SubsystemVersion> is 6.0 for modern .NET, but is documented as only being that value for .NET Framework 4.5. (Which is incomplete anyway as 4.6 through latest legacy framework should also be the same.)

There may be more updates needed too, I've not dug deeply here.
