Do you think anything is really going to try to open and read the file, and then crash because it does not exist? If this is a concern then you also have to worry about the config file being deleted after Wayland starts up.

I think returning "" or some other non-existent file (perhaps the default path+name for a config file) would work.

weston_config_parse may return NULL,
leading to an ungraceful exit via SIGSEGV if we
try to reference the structure.

Adding a check in weston_config_full_path so that
we return the empty file /dev/null as filename
if we started without a config file.
