C.f. #54. The existing Units class could potentially be harnessed here.

There are existing libraries for units, in particular pint and astropy.units, that could potentially replace aospy's.

However, there are apparently some problems with implementing either of these within xarray, although I don't fully understand that discussion. These appear to be an issue with xarray's use of dask. Apparently there are pending advances within numpy that would resolve these issues, so we'll just have to keep an eye on those developments for now.
