DESCRIPTION
     Function dwarf_add_AT_name() creates a DW_AT_name attribute descriptor

     Argument die should reference a debugging information entry allocated
     using dwarf_new_die(3).

     the value of the created attribute.

     If argument err is not NULL, it will be used to store error information
     in case of an error.

     On success, function dwarf_add_AT_name() returns the created attribute
     descriptor.  In case of an error, function dwarf_add_AT_name() returns
     DW_DLV_BADADDR and sets the argument err.
