Huh, you're right; we appear not to expose that right now. If you look
at the class_api.cc file you'll see they're turning that
cls_method_context_t* into a ReplicatedPG::OpContext*. You can patch
that to add a cls_current_object_name() function by doing the same and
then going down the OpContext chain (op->obs->oi->soid.oid) — pull
requests welcome! :)
Or if you want to be really naughty you could do the same inside of
your own class, but that would be a bit fragile if the layout changes
in the OSD and your class code is built against the old one.
