(math-standard-units): Add entries used to display the the values in the

units buffer.
(math-build-units-table):  Add entries to the units table to be used
to display the values in the units buffer.
(math-build-units-table-buffer):  Use the display entry of the units
table when non nil.
(calc-define-unit): Add an option to enter display value of unit.
