Doc string:
Return the name of BUFFER, as a string.
With no argument or nil as argument, return the name of the current
buffer.
Elisp manual, node Buffer Names:
This function returns the name of BUFFER as a string. BUFFER
defaults to the current buffer.
If `buffer-name' returns `nil', it means that BUFFER has been
killed. *Note Killing Buffers::.
The doc string suggests that the function always returns a string,
which the manual belies. The doc string needs to mention the possible
nil return value.
