AMUSE units are outdated: in some cases they contradict international agreed values.
In this PR units and constants are updated to their current standards.
As a reference, the default values used in Astropy should be used.
Changes include:
yr is now the same as julianyr
au value is updated
solar/jupiter/earth related values updated
Make original AMUSE units / constants available under a new name
Update default AMUSE units / constants
Update tests
Test values of units against their Astropy equivalent
Make sure that Astropy unit names map one-to-one to AMUSE units (create aliases where needed, maybe deprecate old AMUSE names)
