In Emacs Lisp, the name convention is to treat "file name" as two words.
So it should be `reveal-file-name', not `reveal-filename'.

I renamed it to unmsys--file-name, but just FYI, grepping the files in
lisp/ for "-filename" brings up more than 1300 hits, including such
oldies as convert-standard-filename.

It is too bad we are inconsistent, but the issue is principally
for entrypoints.  Internal functions in one package are less important
as an inconsistency.
