[issue8787] warnings inside PyRun_SimpleString() display argv[1]

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

Yes, the warnings module tries to display the file name. Inside PyRun_SimpleString(), globals()['__name__'] == '__main__', and the warnings module supposes that argv[1] is the name of the script.

I wonder whether __file__ would be more accurate: it is filled when running a script, but not when running a string. And sys.argv would not be used any more.
