unit needs a new definition

[sfluegel05]

Description of the issue

The current definition of unit is A unit of measurement is a standardized quantity of a physical quality.
This doesn't work for currencies which are units as well (as discussed in oeo developer meeting 8.2).
Currencies are needed for prices, see #331.
Therefore we need a new definition that includes currencies.

Ideas of solution

Workflow checklist

• I discussed the issue with someone else than me before working on a solution
• I already read the latest version of the workflow for this repository
• The goal of this ontology is clear to me

I am aware that

• every entry in the ontology should have a definition
• classes should arise from concepts rather than from words

We just have to delete the "physical quality" part, right? That was the problem why money didn't work with it

I wasn't part of the discussion, but isn't it enough to delete the word physical as it is still related to a quality?

Alternatively, we could try A standardised quantity of a quantifiable entity ?

unit is imported btw. Is it ok to change it?

Yes, I think it is fine as long as we add a comment giving an explanation.

Nice. Ready for implementation?
