[cfe-dev] Get name of MemberExpr expression

[Artem Dergachev via cfe-dev]

If all you want is a string, you might also consider using 
Stmt::printPretty().

This is rarely what people actually want though. Usually assuring that 
this is the kind of expression you're looking for might be necessary as 
well, i.e. the thing after the dot is actually a variable.
