Harmonizing measurement numeric values and units

See also this older thread (and linked pages) Standardizing Units for Measurement - #11 by Vojtech_Huser

If a given measurement (e.g. weight) is mixture of 2 units (lb and kg) - since 2017 the community suggested a solution to have it ideal for analysis. (at ETL time harmonize to a single unit).

AND have all users of OMOP target THE SAME target unit such that multi site analyses work well.
