Description

I realize this is something that Apple is doing with their xcactivitylog. It appears with CompileC and CompileSwift that the documentURL will contain the file name of the file that is being compiled. This is populated by the DVTDocumentLocation.

It seems it would also be useful to have this information available to other compile types such as CompileStoryboard and CompileXIB. It does look like we should be able to derive this from the title.

Research direction

Start by tracing how documentURL is populated for CompileC and CompileSwift, then compare the BuildStepType handling for CompileStoryboard and CompileXIB. Use the title-derived filename as the proposed source, and consider the work done when those compile types expose the relevant file through documentURL consistently.
