fix: a readout keeps its metric prefix when the stream declares no unit
The SI prefix ladder in format_measure() was gated on a non-empty unit, so two decimals of a small unitless value printed `0.00` -- the reading gone, not merely coarse. That is a whole class of channels rather than a corner: a CONFIG need not declare a unit, and a math channel never has one. Below 1e-12 the same loss happened even with a unit, so that range falls back to three significant digits. With no unit the prefix goes tight against the number (`585.24m`), since the space exists to separate the number from its unit and a spaced `m` alone reads as metres. The mock declared `unit="V"` for every data signal, which is why no probe could see this; it now takes `--unit ''`. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
