add some steroid hormones to definitions.units

This commit defines some of the more important sex hormones and their
precursors, to make it easier to convert their levels between density
(as preferred in the US) and molar_concentration (as preferred in
Australia) without remembering any formulas. For example:

> 1212 pmol/L * molar_mass of oestradiol -> pg/mL
approx. 330.1334 picogram / milliliter (density)
> 5.9 nmol/L * molar_mass of progesterone -> ng/mL
approx. 1.855361 nanogram / milliliter (density)
> 0.5 nmol/L * molar_mass of testosterone -> ng/dL
approx. 14.42150 nanogram / deciliter (density)
