Description

### User story

As a server administrator I want to control the game reported to Steam so that my users have accurate information about the server

### Game

Left 4 Dead

### Linux distro

RedHat 7

### Command

command: start

### Further information

I have recently noticed after user reports that the "Game" reported by Steam is the same value as what I set in the `hotsname` configuration value. See screen capture below.

I was expecting, as was the case in the past (I can't say how far back) to see "Left 4 Dead" in that position.

### Relevant log output

_No response_

### Steps to reproduce

1. Install a Left 4 Dead server.
2. Set a value to `hostname` in the server configuration.
3. In Steam, add the server to one's server list via View > Game Servers > Add (+).
4. Once the server shows up in the list, right-click and select "View server info".
5. The "Game" info is the same as the "Server" info.
