Allow organizational preferences on data presentation

Without the ability to customize Envizi for all of our global users, I have tried to make the metric system the default for how data is displayed. 

The data continues to show in the imperial system across the platform which is causing issues. We need the option to have all data to show in the metric system to help ease tensions and accommodate the majority of our locations. 

Only having summary pages show waste, water, etc. in their 'stored unit' results in data that is not meaningful to the majority of users and the cultural sensitivity around imposing these units hinders many from adopting the platform.

    Individual data types are always presented in summary pages in their original (native) unit of measure.

    In Performance dashboards and PowerReport we provide the ability to present data in normalized units of measure for emissions, energy, mass, volume, area and length. The Performance dashboards and powerReport will also follow the default UoM for these categories set in the organization preferences --> Dashboard and Reporting Preferences area.

    We will note as a future enhancement idea the ability for users to set personal preferences for these normalized UoMs. This will be taken into consideration for the next iteration of our UI.
