Description

The default value is '1 kb,' which we don't actually parse:

core::Property GenerateFlowFile::FileSize("File Size", "The size of the file that will be used", "1 kB");

We need to either:

1) Parse size strings e.g. '1 b' '1 kb' '5 MiB'

OR

2) Drop the kb from the default value, and note in the description that the unit is bytes

Option 2 would be a lot simpler.
