As demonstrated in #10308,

vm_memory_high_watermark.absolute = 768Mi

will be accepted by the Cuttlefish (rabbitmq.conf) schema and then rabbitmq-diagnostics status will fail because it does not know how to format Mi.

Ideally the node should fail to start, although accepting Mi, Gi as reasonable approximations for MiB, GiB would be an improvement, too.

This revisits the information system conversion,
that is, support for suffixes like GiB, GB.

When configuration values like disk_free_limit.absolute,
vm_memory_high_watermark.absolute are set, the value
can contain an information unit (IU) suffix.

We now support several new suffixes and the meaning
a few more changes.

First, the changes:

 * k, K now mean kilobytes and not kibibytes
 * m, M now mean megabytes and not mebibytes
 * g, G now means gigabytes and not gibibytes

This is to match the system used by Kubernetes.
There is no consensus in the industry about how
"k", "m", "g", and similar single letter suffixes
should be treated. Previously it was a power of 2,
now a power of 10 to align with a very popular OSS
project that explicitly documents what suffixes it supports.

Now, the additions:

Finally, the node will now validate these suffixes
at boot time, so an unsupported value will cause
the node to stop with a rabbitmq.conf validation
error.

The message logged will look like this:
