Bug Description

Data size on storage devices is typically measured in GiB (2^30), and not GB (10^9).

The Cinder community has addressed this issue by changing all of their CLI and Horizon panels to use "GiB"
(see https://bugs.launchpad.net/horizon/+bug/1511167)

The manila-ui should follow suit. This would require label changes to the following panels:

Project -> Shares -> Shares -> Create Share
Project -> Shares -> Shares -> Extend Share
Project -> Shares -> Shares -> table column
Project -> Shares -> Shares -> share detail page
Project -> Shares -> Shares -> Create Share Snaphot
Project -> Shares -> Snapshots -> table column
Project -> Shares -> Snapshots -> snapshot detail page

Admin -> Shares -> Shares -> table column
Admin -> Shares -> Shares -> share detail page
Admin -> Shares -> Snapshots -> table column
Admin -> Shares -> Snapshots -> snapshot detail page

    Use "GiB" and "gibibyte" labels in share panels

    Data storage sizes are typically measured in gibibytes (GiB).
    To avoid confusion, Manila-ui panels should use these terms
    instead of gigabytes and GB.
