LOG: [DebugInfo] Helper method for finding the deepest inlining location (#161696)

DebugInfoMetadata.h has a way to reach the scope of the deepest caller
location, but not to the location itself. Having it is handy for
debugging and debug printing.

Added: 
    

Modified: 
    llvm/include/llvm/IR/DebugInfoMetadata.h
    llvm/unittests/IR/DebugInfoTest.cpp

Removed:
