I had kept same name as it was decided for 9.3, but now as command has changed so it makes more sense to change name as well. I think it can be one of what you suggested or postgresql.auto.conf. > I prefer auto.conf, personally. Thanks. if no body has any other suggestion I will change it. I think one of system.auto.conf or postgresql.auto.conf is more appropriate because it either resembles command or existing configuration settings file.
