If the Y Axis is using other "advanced" options like SUM/AVG, the unit is no
longer representing the monitored Y field unit. A good example is to show a
calculated field, like smb.time or tcp.analysis.ack_rtt which shows a time in
us (micro seconds). The old version is correctly showing the unit in s or ms
but the new QT version is only showing the value without a human readable unit.

See example in Screenshot old vs new.

Expectations: unit should be shown like in old version. Means if a Y file is
representing a time, the Y scale should be named with time in the best match of
the time range, like ms (milliseconds) or s (seconds).
