Description
### What would you want to propose?
I would love added support for the upcoming [variable units](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-variables-2/#variable-units) syntax.
```css
:host {
--hem: 1em;
}
.wrapper {
width: 20--hem;
}
```
### Suggested solution
In postcss-custom-properties, I imagine this would be a trivial addition to the [transformations](https://github.com/csstools/postcss-plugins/blob/main/plugins/postcss-custom-properties/src/lib/transform-properties.ts), given that the [discussion around it](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/7379) suggests that `20--hem` is nothing but syntax sugar for `calc(20 * var(--hem))`
