[Opensim-dev] move some parameters between inis

[Serendipity Seraph]

Perhaps what is really needed is to rename "GridCommon.ini" to something like "ServicesCommon.ini" since it is really largely about configuration of common services always used by opensim regardless of whether it is in standalone or grid mode.   

Of course I would be happier still if we moved on from these old school config files to a nice opensim DSL.  :)
