i18n: use actual filename, in which function is defined, for hg.pot

Before this patch, source filename for msgid in hg.pot file becomes
incorrect, if a function is defined in file A, but detected in dict in
file B,

For example, almost all debug* commands are defined in
debugcommands.py, but hggettext detects them in "table" of
commands.py. Therefore, docstring fragments of debug* commands are
marked as "defined in commands.py" in hg.pot file.

This is serious problem for translation, because the cost to find out
original location of texts increases very much.

To run the tests, do:

cd tests/
python run-tests.py
