🐞 Description of the bug

When ParametricStudy.save() is called and the file_name parameter does not match the current study file name (which is stored in the file_name attribute), the study is saved to file_name and the file_name attribute is set to the new file name. This is an undocumented side effect.

📝 Steps to reproduce

from ansys.additive.core.parametric_study import ParametricStudy

study = ParametricStudy("study-file")
print(study.file_name)
study.save("new-study-file")
print(study.file_name)
