Doc: fix null pointer passing to fprintf

When these docs were written, the context.file and context.function
pointers were never null. But in commit d78fb442d7
(Qt 5.4), we made the logging pass null pointers in release builds. The
C standard does not say that passing null pointers is permitted. In
fact, it says "If no l length modifier is present, the argument shall be
a pointer to the initial element of an array of character type." and
that's pretty explicit that it needs to point to the initial element of
a string.
