In Inkscape you can select both the circles with shift+click (you need
to have the select tool enabled for this). And then after selecting
ctrl+G will group the objects. Then both will have the same fill and
stroke and other properties. They will even move together. It wouldn't
reduce file size though.

Plain SVG should be fine. Don't try svgz or other formats. PDF makes
the file uneditable. It is only for viewing purposes.

At least for Ubuntu Studio it is "Creative Commons Legal Code
