Disallow control characters in instrument unit and description #2496

Description

@jack-berg

Instrument units MUST be ASCII strings.

Instrument descriptions MUST support BMP (Unicode Plane 0), which is basically only the first three bytes of UTF-8.

Both of these allow control characters to be included. We should update the language to exclude control characters, which are not printable.
