New script names

[David Fifield <david () bamsoftware com>]

Hi,

Fyodor and I had a meeting today and we came up with new names for most
of the scripts that come with Nmap. This was to improve script output
now that scripts are identified by file name, and also to make the names
more consistent.

These are the principles we used in choosing new names: Short names are
better than long names if there is no loss in meaning. Names should be
easy to type and remember, but more importantly must give useful
information in output. Lowercase names are preferred. The names of
scripts that deal with one protocol start with the name of the protocol;
that's why brutePOP3 became pop3-brute and anonFTP became ftp-anon.

The names are open for discussion if there are any you'd like to see
changed.
