Recognize Suffixes in Settings Values

Official CH changelog text
Now we recognize suffix (like KB, KiB...) in settings values. #8072 (Mikhail Korotov)
ClickHouse now supports recognizing and parsing size suffixes (such as KB, KiB, etc.) in configuration settings values.

Why it matters

This feature allows users to specify sizes in more human-readable formats with common suffixes, improving configuration clarity and reducing errors caused by manual size conversions.

How to use it

Users can specify size values in settings using suffixes like KB, KiB, MB, MiB, and so forth. ClickHouse will automatically parse and convert these suffixed values correctly when applying the settings.
