Add nautical mile to Units and constants > Length #1912

Problem you'd like to fix

I would like to convert to and from knots = 1 nautical mile/h.

Screenshots

You can convert to and from mph using _mi/_h, but knot uses nautical miles instead of miles. screenshot (7)

Describe the solution you'd like

Add nautical mile to "Units and constants > Length" or perhaps under "Length > Imperial". Perhaps it could be called _nmi. 1_nmi = 1852_m.

Describe alternatives you've considered

One could add a Speed category, but that seems unnecessary if knot is the only speed unit.

Screenshot from 2023-02-15 22-00-52 Definitely you can have easily Nautical Miles, I hope the developers may decide to include them in next releases. Quick editing the code you can build your own epsilon version with Nautical Miles. Next step will be knots for the speed.
