[ink] use real units (2: stylus-force channel)

Sorry this comment is so late; I ran aground after rushing to get
earlier comments in by the deadline and this one was left in the
cognitive but not email-text buffer.

As compared with timing, the instrument capabilities in the ink source
that feed a stylus-force channel are likely to be non-standard, varying
from device to device.

But this doesn't mean they can't be documented.

Please consider using the Device Description Repository that the
Device Description Working Group is developing as part of the InkML
food chain, in terms of how to publish metadata that will allow third
parties to meaningfully process the pen-force data without having to
open a license negotiation.
