Description of the change

I've added rsync --human-readable support

- modified gnome and kde applications to set the configuration
- tested both gnome and kde applications, making sure they can toggle human_readable flag in ~/.config/backintime/config
- backup runs with --human-readable.

I think this is a simple enough change to consider it "stable".

I wanted this feature so that when I twitter the summary of how much data was transferred, it is easily readable.

For example, now I get this...
sent 150.30M bytes received 2.62M bytes 719.59K bytes/sec

Instead of something like this...
sent 150123456 bytes received 2621325 bytes 719591 bytes/sec

I grab the 150M awk, and send that value out with my tweet.

oops, I accidentally messed up the kde app by removing checksum capability. Should I cancel this merge request, and make a new one?

Thanks for the code and sorry it took that long before someone looked at it. I added -h flag (same as --human-readable) permanently for next major version 1.0. So this is obsolete by now.
