e54f86aa6a1d: libshared: Change string_for_rate to use KiB/s instead of Kbps.
string_for_size uses KiB, etc., and so when the two are combined (e.g.
pkgman's progress display), it looked especially strange to have two
different units.
I would rather write it as "KiB/s" and not "KiB per second" which wastes some
space.
And I would keep the option for displaying Kbps as well, even if it does not
make much sense in network contexts anymore, it is still ueful for media
bitrate, for example.
