relax path requirement to not require fdsnws #2

Description

@crotwell

Current (1.2) spec says:

The following base URI pattern is to be used at each data center implementing FDSN services: <site>​/fdsnws/<service>/<majorversion>/

But that limits datacenters to a single instance of each type of web service, and this requirement is already an issue, for example IRIS with the PH5 repository at:
http://service.iris.edu/ph5ws/dataselect/1

So, maybe should relax this requirement by saying a compliant service url should be
<site>​/<repository>/<service>/<majorversion>/
where <repository> can be defined by the datacenter if needed, but the primary url for a fdsn web service with a datacenter should have repository be 'fdsnws'.
