Martin Desruisseaux updated SIS-414:
------------------------------------
    Description: 
When formatting a unit which is {{Units.UNITY}} scaled to some value, since 
{{Units.UNITY}} has no symbol, attempts to format it produce confusing strings. 
Example with the _number of icebergs per 100 km²_:

| Symbol in netCDF file: | {{1e-2 km-2}} |
| SIS 0.8 representation: | {{1.0E-8⋅∕m²}} |

Note the multiplication immediately followed by division sign above.

{{Units.UNITY}} has no symbol, attempts to format it produce confusing strings. 
Example:

Number of icebergs per 100 km²

Reformatted by SIS 0.8: "{{1.0E-8⋅∕m²}}"

Note the multiplication immediately followed by division sign above.



> Multiplication symbol should be omitted when the unit is Units.UNITY
