Copy dataset units in geocode.py

[EJFielding]

Description of the desired feature

The new addition of UNIT in the velocity.h5 output files is very helpful when we have run timeseries2velocity.py with a step function fit. It would be great if these UNIT were copied to the geocoded output when we run geocode.py velocity.h5.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

The velocity.h5 file has units.

HDF5 dataset "/step20210908        ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
  UNIT    m
HDF5 dataset "/step20210908Std     ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
  UNIT    m
HDF5 dataset "/velocity            ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
  UNIT    m/year
HDF5 dataset "/velocityStd         ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
  UNIT    m/year

After running geocode.py on it, the units are lost in the geo_velocity.h5 file:

HDF5 dataset "/step20210908        ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
HDF5 dataset "/step20210908Std     ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
HDF5 dataset "/velocity            ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>
HDF5 dataset "/velocityStd         ": shape (1155, 2053)        , dtype <float32>

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be great if the UNIT values were copied over by geocode.py.
