remove filesize conversion in statusbar

Version information

EndeavourOS aur/thunar-devel 4.21.2-1

request

Remove the bracketed unit conversion to bytes in the Status bar. Examples:

1. Directory overview:

   66 files: 14.6 GB (14,624,101,518 bytes) | Free space: 11.3 TB

2. 1 file selected:

   file.gz | 342.2 MB (345,175,925 bytes) | Gzip archive

3. Multiple files selected:

   Selection: 4 files: 1.4 GB (1,380,593,864 bytes)

Better would be the same way the Free space: info is displayed.

Thanks for taking the time to go through this little and possibly controversial issue! I appreciate everyone here in any outcome.
