Description
Retrieves attached file path based on attachment ID.By default the path will go through the {@see 'get_attached_file'} filter, but
passing `true` to the `$unfiltered` argument will return the file path unfiltered.
The function works by retrieving the `_wp_attached_file` post meta value.
This is a convenience function to prevent looking up the meta name and provide
a mechanism for sending the attached filename through a filter.
