) Change the implementation of TypeSpec::string(), which returns the text representation of a TypeSpec, so that it prints the name of the struct rather than just its numerical designation. An example of the old behavior, as applied to a type checking error message: test.osl:10: error: No matching function call to 'max (struct 1, struct 1)' Candidates are: int max (int, int) float max (float, float) ... And the new behavior: test.osl:10: error: No matching function call to 'max (struct vector4, struct vector4)'

This is a back-port of a fix that went into master a long time ago, and seems to fix some reported bugs in RB-1.8.
Turns out that in addition to making nicer error printing (its original use, per the commit message), it also fixes a bug wherein use of arraylength() on an array of struct resulted in generated code that would make a confusing error message in
oslinfo/oslquery.Sorry for the confusing diffs; the function is changing a bit, in addition to moving from file to file.
