Mostly just a couple naming things, but generally LGTM

Since this parameter's value comes from number, I think we can get it inside this method instead of passing it as a separate parameter.

Makes sense! In the main method, I was using this variable as a fallback to the max decimal precision variable if it wasn't passed in, but I ended up switching the max decimal precision variable to an Optional so it no longer needs to be a parameter for this method

Do you need to set this, actually? I'd think the default NumberFormat would try to show the entire passed-in value by default, which would mean it would use all decimal digits (unless it was over the maximum).

I double checked with the unit tests I wrote and I think you are correct. This doesn't need to be set since by default - it'll just output all the decimal digits unless a maximum less than the number of decimal digits was set

I think FormatNumberFilter would align with how filters are named relative to their representation in Jinjava, no?

This should go higher up to maintain the alphabetic sort now that the name has changed.

Since locales render numbers differently, there needs to be a way to format numbers based on the locale. Currently, the only way is to use the
format_currencyfilter and get rid of the currency symbol.This PR creates a
format_numberfilter that will do this formatting natively.format_number(locale, decimalPrecisionNumber)wherelocaleis String of an ISO language code andmaxDecimalPrecisionis a number that determines the number of decimal digits of the formatted input value.Examples:
{{ 1000|format_number('en-US') }}==> 1,000{{ 1000.333|format_number('en-US') }}==> 1,000.333{{ 1000.333|format_number('en-US', 2) }}==> 1,000.33{{ 1000|format_number('fr') }}==> 1 000{{ 1000.333|format_number('fr') }}==> 1 000,333{{ 1000.333|format_number('fr', 2) }}==> 1 000,33{{ 1000|format_number('es') }}==> 1.000{{ 1000.333|format_number('es') }}==> 1.000,333{{ 1000.333|format_number('es', 2) }}==> 1.000,33
