[mapserver-dev] Motion: rename shp2img to map2img

[Even Rouault]

I'm +1. shp2img/map2img usage is likely mostly as a debugging tool. And 
the change to adapt is trivial (or people can create a symlink)

A possibility if we worry about backward compatibility would be also to 
modify the CMake install target to create a symlink (probably only on Unix)
