[issue18534] File "name" attribute should always be a text string

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

You can never assume that "name" will be a string:

>>> f = open(0, "r")
>>> f.name
0

This may be a bit of a bad idea API-wise, but changing it now will start breaking code, so I think we should leave it as-is.
