The subcommands names are the xm names, which I thought we needed to
keep for compatibility.

We could add both cpupool- and pool- variants and deprecate the later.
Or perhaps these commands are not widely used (at least from scripts and
whatnot) and we can just change the name.

See <4CAB2CE5.1070208@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> and
<1286371053.23155.12762.camel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> for some previous
discussion.

Ian.
