kB vs KB
kB = 1000 bytes where KB = 1024 bytes.

Hi @axyangsio!

First off, I don't think this change could maintain backwards compatibility.

This enhancement would require adding support for IEC binary values (kibibyte (KiB), mebibyte (MiB), gibibyte (GiB), etc) as well as the JEDEC format as you've started to add above; support for MB and GB should also be included here but I'm not sure how to do it without maintaining backwards compatibility.

I haven't tested it, but I think we could do it by adding the following:

'k|kilo'   : [ 1e3, 1e3 ],
'K|Ki|Kibi|Kilo' : [ 1024, 1024 ],
'Mi|Mebi|mebi' : [ Math.pow(1024, 2), Math.pow(1024, 2) ], // 1024^2
'Gi|Gigi|gigi' : [ Math.pow(1024, 3), Math.pow(1024, 3) ], // 1024^3

The RegLong and RegAbbr would need to be updated with these changes.
