Since CIL treats files as modules and does not have a separate
module statement it can cause confusion when a Refpolicy module
has a name that is different than its base filename because older
SELinux userspaces will refer to the module by its module name while
a CIL-based userspace will refer to it by its filename.
Because of this, provide a warning message when compiling a module and
the output filename is different than the module name.
