As was pointed out by Robin, rados and rbd are different.

Considering verbose alternatives to rbd: they may be invented, but
will be non-standard and this will confuse our users: it will be
similar to "portableng" instead of "png".

Since we don't have rbd meaning conflict right now, it should be
safe to use. In case of future issues, local USE may be used for
alternative meanings.
