There was definitely consensus on the file size change from IEC -> SI, so I
committed that change in r53728. And for now I just documented the capture
buffer size as "MiB" since that's the correct units. I have no problem
changing the implementation of the capture buffer size to SI units though,
if anyone thinks it makes more sense to do that. r53728 is scheduled for
1.10, but I decided to leave 1.8 alone.
