Fix 'info type-printers' Python error - PR 17136

  Hi,

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17136

if you debug any program then register the type printer with the current
objfile, running 'info type-printers' results in a python exception:

(gdb) info type-printers
Python Exception <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> 'gdb.Objfile' object has no attribute 'name': 
Error occurred in Python command: 'gdb.Objfile' object has no attribute 'name'
->
(gdb) info type-printers 
Type printers for /lib64/libstdc++.so.6:
  basic_string_view<C>
  deque<T>
...
  unordered_set<T>
  vector<T>

The exception doesn't happen if the type printer is registered globally, by
passing None instead of gdb.current_objfile().

The patch can be checked in IMO.
Given that I don't have the time to write a testcase myself
I'm not going to force someone else to.
Another reviewer may require one though.

I have looked now into history when the regression by "name"->"filename"
rename in objfile happened but I haven't found anything.

FSF GDB got already checked in support for "filename" in 2012 by:

A the previous archer.git commit also had "filename" in 2009:

Hi.

fyi, I have pushed this to trunk and the 7.10 branch.
