In my opinion, a file manager should show file sizes with base-2 prefixes because that's what I care about when I look at file sizes. Even Windows Explorer does this (Although it displays it with MB instead of MiB). Now Nemo is able to use base-2 prefixes, too.
I decided to create 4 enum values out of the possible flags because that way it is not neccessary to struggle with flags in such a simple case.
Implements #13. Display style is configurable under preferences.
However, if you don't want Nemo to be able to use base-2 prefixes (although I hope you do), then just reject this request ;-)
