So if I say "foobar" in C--, it turns into:
{{{
section "rodata" {
fresh_name : bits8[] "foobar\0";
}
}}}
This would let us fix the ASSERT macro in Cmm.h to also get the filename.
Requires parser changes.
Alternatively, we can redefine the ASSERT macro per C-- file to have a
hardcoded filename with some preprocessor trickery.
