ldlinux: Always update ConfigName when opening a config file
With the introduction of commit aa7dd29db684 ("ldlinux: Pass config
filename as argv[1] to ldlinux.c32") we stopped using ConfigName to
store the filename of the config file we intend to open in execute()
since it interfered with the filesystem-specific open_config()
implementations. But a side-effect of this change is that
syslinux_config_file() no longer works if we explicitly pass a
filename to parse_config_file().
The logical place to keep ConfigName in sync is in parse_config_file()
since it's expected that all the filesystem-specific open_config()
functions will fill out ConfigName for us. In the case where the
filename is supplied by the caller, we need to fill it out ourselves.

Thanks for the report folks. This is fixed in 5.11-pre3 and will be in
6.01-pre5 when that gets released.
