Option to always use truncated display of Measurements about measurements.jl HOT 4 CLOSED

There is already a PR for Unitful.jl to fix the issue when using the two packages together: PainterQubits/Unitful.jl#213

from measurements.jl.

I did not know of that PR, that will be definitively a huge improvement!

However there are still cases where the display is not truncated, like in this MWE:

julia> using Measurements

julia> a = 10π ± π
31.4 ± 3.1

julia> a, a
(31.41592653589793 ± 3.141592653589793, 31.41592653589793 ± 3.141592653589793)

An option to always use truncation would solve this for all cases where one has no control over whether the IO has :limit mode set.

Or, if a global option is not possible, is there some way one can easily force Measurements to be displayed truncated?

I don't really like global options. I'm thinking about simply always using truncated display.

That would also be totally fine (and reasonable) for me. However, in that case an easy method to display the untruncated version would probably be good.
