Should the values in the default configuration file contain units? And
if so, should we phase out the verbal description of the units, e.g.,

#work_mem = 1024 # min 64, size in kB

becomes

#work_mem = 1MB # min 64kB

(The "native" units are of course still shown in the documentation for
reference.)
