*shrug* I checked in https://github.com/landley/toybox/commit/5b7cc6d6c2a5 as my
best guess how to fix all this. Does that cover it? It removes the commas and
replaces it with an HR_NODOT flag to not do the 0.0 thing for single digit
outputs, and keeps the "force megabytes for 10G and up". Wastes horizontal
space, but...
