Incorrect handling of "k" "K" and similar suffixes for df, should be binary #592

Running df -Bk or df -BK is equivalent to df -BKiB but jc handles this as equivalent to df -BKB.

Coreutils handling of k/K as identical to KiB is documented here: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/manual/html_node/Block-size.html, not sure how other systems handle this.

As a workaround it is possible to run df -BKB or df -BKiB explicitly

This is fixed in dev and will make it in the next release.
