IncommensurableException should be a checked exception

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In JSR-275, the exception throw by Unit.getConverterToAny(Unit<?>) was a 
checked exception, at the opposite of Unit.getConverterTo(Unit<Q>). This 
checked exception was considered an important safety feature, and one reason 
for having two methods ("getConverterTo", "getConverterToAny"): one is safe, 
the other is not safe and the checked exception make that clear.

However in the unitofmeasurement.org API, the exception has been made 
unchecked. It should be reverted back to a checked exception.

Attached is the SVN patch to apply.
