Issue description
When I Convert the origin of a Translate layer into a Composite in the Parameters panel, it always shows the composite in Synfig units instead of the default units.

In addition, the u suffix is not shown to warn the user they are dealing with Synfig Units and not pixels.

It's usually much more conveinient to work in pixels, so this can make animating Translate layers harder.
Steps to reproduce this issue
i) Add a translate Layer in Synfig Studio ii) With the translate layer selected, right click on the Origin in the Paramters panel and choose Convert > Composite iii) The numbers shown are in Synfig Units

An interesting tool. For me, everything related to translations is relevant. Especially since I often deal with it. I recently needed to translate english to lithuanian and sought professional assistance. In this case, I am confident in the translation's quality and accuracy.
