Describe the bug
https://www.eumetsat.int/meteosat-10meteosat-11-mission-swap

The two satellites are swapping positions and roles, which means the filenames of the RSS and Full-Earth Scan data will change. We use regex a few times in Satip, so that might need to be updated?

Additionally, RSS will be down till March 28th, and degraded (as the satellite drifts into position) till April 12th.
The full disk scan will be stopped for up to 6 hours on the 21st of March.

Additional context
The satellites were only cleared for 5 years of RSS imagery each, so they are swapping as the current RSS satellite is reaching that 5 year limit. This does mean this shouldn't really happen again anytime soon. The RSS replacement satellite will be operational before 5 years from now I think
