Is there an option to display in bits instead of bytes?

Yes, there is a `bits` option to display the number in bits instead of bytes.

According to the API documentation in [readme.md:L58-L70], the `bits` option is a boolean that defaults to `false`. When set to `true`, it formats the number as bits instead of bytes, which can be useful when referring to bit rate.

Here's an example from the documentation:

```js
import prettyBytes from 'pretty-bytes';

prettyBytes(1337, {bits: true});
//=> '1.34 kbit'
```

The implementation in [index.js:L135-L137] uses this option to select the appropriate units:

```js
const UNITS = options.bits
	? (options.binary ? BIBIT_UNITS : BIT_UNITS)
	: (options.binary ? BIBYTE_UNITS : BYTE_UNITS);
```

So when `bits: true` is passed, it uses `BIT_UNITS` (or `BIBIT_UNITS` if binary mode is also enabled) instead of the default byte units.
