Incorrect *valueuom* in hosp.labevents for itemid 51249

For itemid 51249, the valueuom is sometimes recorded as 'g/dL' and sometimes as '%', although it should seemingly be 'g/dL' consistently.

I don't know if this problem appears for some other itemids.

Edit: same issue with itemid 50889 and valueuom sometimes NA sometimes mg/L.

also covered in #2140 — valueuom can drift per itemid (e.g. mchc g/dl vs %); prefer the modal unit or an explicit conversion rather than mixing rows.
