Follow-up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D57974, which added calls to Archive::Child::getFullName() to produce strings in errors.

But getFullName() is only valid on thin archives, and should only be used to open the file the archive points to. For diagnostics, getName() is better: It works for both thin and non-thin files, and it doesn't make a very long string for thin files. And we already prepend the name of the parent archive file anyways.
