I would go with "stylesheet".

I can't find a strong argument for or against "transform" or
"stylesheet" in the XSLT specification: the root element can be either
xsl:stylesheet or xsl:transform and the XSLT specification starts with
"A transformation in the XSLT language is expressed in the form of a
stylesheet". So it seems to be a wash.

My preference for "stylesheet" comes from my perception that most
people are calling that "XSLT document" a "stylesheet" rather than a
"transform" or "transformation"; so "stylesheet" just seems more
natural.
