Display using most accurate unit of measure #264

Is it possible to change the units to the most accurate. For instance, 90M (90,000,000) KB would be better as 90GB.

The "report" graphs should show in reasonable units (e.g. 4.4G, for "free" in mem_report). The "metric "graphs will show as stored (e.g. 4.47M in unit KB, for the "mem_free" metric).

Changing the unit in the database is not really doable, and it is stored as a float anyway... There's also the rrdtool_base_1024 setting, if you would rather have 1G be (1 << 30)B.
