Add aliases to fluid ounces #57

Open joshrickert opened 8 years ago

joshrickert commented 8 years ago

I have a lot of data coming in formatted as 'fl oz', but it's not supported with the space so I have to do some custom parsing before handing it off to this library. Would be handy to support the spaced variants of fluid ounces: 'fl oz', 'fluid ounce', 'fluid ounces'.

Also, potentially supporting just 'oz', and knowing based on the context of the original unit whether it should use the weight or volume, since many places that use fluid ounces just say 'oz' (ie on bottles of water)
