[IR/AsmWriter] Output escape sequences if the first character isdigit()
If the first character in a metadata attachment's name is a digit, it has to be output using an escape sequence, otherwise it's not valid text IR. Removed an over-zealous assert from LLVMContext which didn't allow this. The rule should only apply to text IR. Actual names can have any sequence of non-NUL bytes. Also added some documentation on accepted names. Bug found with AFL fuzz. llvm-svn: 238867
