cms-aaa naming convention

cms-aaa is the only remaining personality to use proxy/ceph as the xrootd service names


Separate naming convention would be more appropriate, to have main/supporting

Option 2 preferred for efficiency, but Option 1 decided on

Option 1 would be simpler to implement for a temporary fix, as the move would be reversed
