This does not implement "alternative" digits, like in South Asian scripts or West Arabic Numerals, because I didn't find a good authorative way to do it in Python. In the current version of Python, there *SHOULD BE*, but isn't because it's bugged. locale.ALT_DIGITS data (well locale.ALT_DIGITS is a flag that is used to get the data from somewhere else...) is broken, and even if it was broken it contains weird data (the first 0..99 ways to write positive integers in that script), which doesn't tell us whether the localization should use those alternative digits when doing number localization... This needs to be checked later in a later version of Python, but the whole locale module stuff is just weird stuff inherited from Posix and C.

Fixes #423
Improvements to formatnum:
R"reverse" flag that converts from "formatted" to "raw". Basically it removes commas at its simplest.I'll look into localization later in this draft.
