This is the first part of a pair of patch series which aim to let us
use nbdkit_parse_size (or rather, an equivalent common function) in
nbdcopy, so we can write:
nbdcopy --request-size=32M ...
We can't do that now which was annoying me earlier in the week.
This commit creates a new function called human_size_parse which is
basically nbdkit_parse_size, and turns nbdkit_parse_size into a
wrapper around it.
Rich.
