Non-standard units, inconsistent with other GNOME apps

Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor
Gnome System Monitor displays memory and partition sizes using units
like "MB" and "GB", but with the non-standard Microsoft definition (MB =
1,048,576 bytes instead of 1,000,000 bytes).
Compare with other apps like Gnome Partition E
