Creates an instance of OpenSSL::Config from the content of the file specified by filename.

This can be used in contexts like OpenSSL::X509::ExtensionFactory.config=

This can raise IO exceptions based on the access, or availability of the file. A ConfigError exception may be raised depending on the validity of the data being configured.
