Always report 2 decimal places when data speed is >=1MiB/Sec

Based off Debian package v1.2.0-1.

I have had a VDSL2 connection for a few years now, and often see speeds of
>1MiB/Sec. With the current code, the speed is rounded to the nearest MiB -
this kills off too much detail for me.

The attached patch is a simple way for me to get back at that detail - when
format_byte_humanreadable is called, it is passed small (<1MiB) and large
number digit values, and displays the relevant number of digits as appropriate.

Personally once MiB speeds are reached, I always want 2dp of detail. Are there
any changes I should make with this patch?
