mem: Consistently use ISO prefixes

We currently use the traditional SI-like prefixes for to represent
binary multipliers in some contexts. This is ambiguous in many cases
since they overload the meaning of the SI prefix.

Here are some examples of commonly used in the industry:
  * Storage vendors define 1 MB as 10**6 bytes
  * Memory vendors define 1 MB as 2**20 bytes
  * Network equipment treats 1Mbit/s as 10**6 bits/s
  * Memory vendors define 1Mbit as 2**20 bits

In practice, this means that a FLASH chip on a storage bus uses
decimal prefixes, but that same flash chip on a memory bus uses binary
prefixes. It would also be reasonable to assume that the contents of a
1Mbit FLASH chip would take 0.1s to transfer over a 10Mbit Ethernet
link. That's however not the case due to different meanings of the
prefix.

The quantity 2MX is treated differently by gem5 depending on the unit
X:

  * Physical quantities (s, Hz, V, A, J, K, C, F) use decimal prefixes.
  * Interconnect and NoC bandwidths (B/s) use binary prefixes.
  * Network bandwidths (bps) use decimal prefixes.
  * Memory sizes and storage sizes (B) use binary prefixes.

Mitigate this ambiguity by consistently using the ISO/IEC/SI prefixes
for binary multipliers for parameters and comments where appropriate.
