[squeak-dev] Fixes for Durations (week, hour, ...)

There was a discussion on Pharo list on methods like
 hours vs. hour
 minutes vs minute
 ...

with the agreement that it makes only sense to have
the plural and singular forms the same.

This allows more natural treating of durations and fix some
issues so things like:

  0.5 hour minutes

or 

 (1/2) hour minutes

return 30 correctly, etc.


There are three Pharo issues ([2] [3] and [4]) for that.

I reworked the changes and test cases also for Squeak 
(see attached changeset) since should help being compatible
at this level. 

I can commit the changes to Squeak trunk - but at least
maybe someone can shortly review them.

Thx
Torsten
