Shouldn't the naming of units::torque::foot_pound be changed #311

Please include the following information in your issue:

  1. Which version of units you are using master (as of this writing)

Was the naming of "foot pound" as a unit of torque (vs energy) intentional? Or should this unit be called "pound foot".

Similarly, does "foot poundal" belong categorized under "torque"?
