My proposal:

1. SVCB  ->  SRVLOC

   Service location, less cryptic than SVCB, and manifestly a
   generalization of SRV.

2. HTTPSSVC  ->  HTTPLOC

   HTTP location, manifestly a variant of the generic service location,
   with HTTP in the name.

Definitely agree on the need for a single lexeme, these names end up as
enum names in various programming languages.
