What did William Duke of Normandy have to do with the Hundred Years War?

He didn't. The Hundred Years War happened in the 14th and 15th centuries. The only William Duke of Normandy I know of was the guy who fought the battle of Hastings against Harold Godwinson in 1066. Admittedly William did technically cause the Hundred Years War as without him conquering England it would never have had lands in France and the wars, if any, would not have been so long.

What happened when a medieval king had no clear heir?

It was not good for a kingdom when a king died without a clear heir. When this happened, it often, possibly usually, caused a war over who would be the next king. The Norman Invasion happened for this reason, as did the Hundred Years' War, the War of the Roses, and a number of other wars. Kings tried to prevent these wars by making their nobles swear they would accept the appointed heir. This often or usually did not work.
