Just my 2 cents on the API and doc...

IMO, the name that was chosen for this function implies the opposite
of what it does (it implies that it returns the solib (base?) address).
I would personally prefer solib_name or solib_name_from_address.

ISTM that we would be better off not duplicating the various forms
a linespec can take. How about using a cross reference?
