Expand description

Generates LLVM debuginfo for a vtable.

The vtable type looks like a struct with a field for each function pointer and super-trait pointer it contains (plus the `size` and `align` fields).

Except for `size`, `align`, and `drop_in_place`, the field names don’t try to mirror the name of the method they implement. This can be implemented in the future once there is a proper disambiguation scheme for dealing with methods from different traits that have the same name.
