Probably not (but I don't know any language that is not ok with this).
I would just add strbuf_humanise_rate() that prints "GiB/s",
"MiB/s"... Then we probably should print "bytes/second". This will
print "bytes/s" which looks just weird.

That assumes all languages will print the unit after the number. I
guess that is ok and it helps share code if we add
strbuf_humanise_rate() above because only the unit part changes.
