Add FemtoSecond and AttoSecond #850

Closed sgarrettroe closed 5 months ago

sgarrettroe commented 5 months ago

Add femtosecond and attosecond.

Background

Chemists and physicists can use ultrafast lasers to measure processes that occur on the 1e-15 to 1e-18 s timescales. QUDT provides units and conversions only down to 1e-12 s (picoseconds); the SI prefixes for femto- and attosecond were not implemented.

Action

Entries for unit:FemtoSEC and unit:AttoSEC have been created. Standard SI prefixes, symbols, and labels have been used (FemtoSEC, fs, Femtosecond) and (AttoSEC, as, Attosecond).

The qudt:iec61360Code was located for both units
