Plan for removing KB and changing MB, TB, GB to decimal scale, without causing unpleasant surprises for users:

- in release 4.2: remove them from the unitconversion table; using them should trigger an error message telling the user to change them to KiB, MiB, TiB, GiB
- in a later release (5.0?), add them back with decimal scale

Also, add speed units: mps, kmph

adjust also the random generators, or document them. It takes some attempts to understand that a message size in a .ini file should be written as: weibull(10B,1B).
