units: Remove InputString from the public API

Currently `InputString` is in the public API of `units` because of the
trait bound on `parse::int()`. We can just do the monomorphisisation
manually to remove it.

This patch renames `int` to have three different names, one for `&str`
one for `String`, and one for `Box<str>`.
