fix(accounts): complete client.name to client.account_name rename

The previous rename of the account option key left "client.name" in
accounts_set_client() and accounts_clear_client(), preventing the
option from being set/cleared. Update both functions to use the
correct "client.account_name" key.

Note: existing configurations with the old key will not be migrated
automatically; a migration fix will follow.
