[G. Branden Robinson]

Update of bug #60957 (project groff):

                 Summary: adopt terms "scaled width" and "scaling unit" =>
adopt term "scaling unit" over "scaling indicator"

Follow-up Comment #2:

Much of this has been done.  Here's a grep for checkpointing purposes.  NEWS,
ChangeLogs, and similar are excluded.  Source code comments and symbol names
_are_ included because internal and external documentation should align.

Also, I haven't found any need to apply the term "scaled width", so I am
simplifying the scope of this ticket.
