Secondary Speed Indicator on HUD

Currently, we have multiple velocity units (m/s, km/h, mph) to choose from. Sometimes, having just one unit isn't enough. When flying a ship, you might want to monitor your speed in another unit of measurement.

To make this easier, a small secondary speed indicator could be added next to the primary unit. For example, if your default unit is set to m/s, you could also display speed in km/h for better real-life speed safety.

This feature might not be relevant to everyone, but it could be a helpful addition for those who need it.

Or just have the possibility to change the readout on the fly or in management

Could be as simple as adding an option in the terminal menu (where you edit the block settings). Ex. right at the top or somewhere easily visible, have a dropdown menu option for primary unit, along with a checkbox "enable second speed unit" and a dropdown. For small ships (miners, etc) and utility drones I could definitely see the applicability of using smaller units.
