[LLVMdev] "Function" file name

That information is generally only present if the file was compiled
with debug info ("clang -g"), and even then I believe it's only
attached to the instructions in a function rather than the function
itself. Inlining can complicate things further, so you need to pick
the *right* instruction (some may come from a different file
entirely).

Some grubbing around the class hierarchy suggests this procedure:
1. Find a "ret" instruction in the function (actually, a function can
rarely exist with "unreachable" instead of "ret" so be careful).
2. Call Instruction::getDebugLoc on it
3. Call DebugLoc::getAsMDNode to convert it into an MDNode
4. Create a DILocation from that MDNode and query it for your info.

There may be a simpler way, but hopefully that will do the job.

Cheers.

Tim.
