Thomas Jackson e7e01fadbf Add name kwarg to STATE_RUNTIME_KEYWORDS
The state system packs in `name` (the highstate's name) to each state module as an optional kwarg. Since this wasn't called out as a RUNTIME keyword you would get warnings (in the states) that look something like:

```
    Warnings: 'name' is an invalid keyword argument for
              'SOMETHING_HERE'. If you were trying to pass additional
              data to be used in a template context, please populate 'context'
              with 'key: value' pairs. Your approach will work until Salt Carbon
              is out. Please update your state files.
```

Since `name` is an internal thing, we'll mark it as such-- meaning you won't get warnings if you don't use it.

Salt delivers a dynamic communication bus for infrastructures that can be used
for orchestration, remote execution, configuration management and much more.
