Can we rename this to `clang_isBeforeInTranslationUnit()`?

I think of source locations as a tuple: file, line, column, and tuple 
comparison is usually "is each element of the tuple less than each element of 
the other tuple" which doesn't really apply to source locations (for example, 
the rhs column numbers can be greater than the lhs column number but the lhs is 
still before the rhs in the source; also, what does it mean for one file to be 
less than another file?).
