Metadata API: include target name in targetfile

Currently, TargetFile instances do not contain the filename of the file
they represent. The API itself does not need it but it could be useful
for users of the API.

As an example, the current client returns a dict for
get_one_valid_targetinfo(): that dict contains a filepath field and
a targetinfo field (essentially TargetFile).
We would like to keep a similar API, but avoid hand-crafted dicts.
It would be much nicer to return a TargetFile that would contain the
full "metadata" of the targetfile.
