what would be the proper name for such a conversion? simplearabic?
arabicdigits?

[myconversion]
[١,٢,٣,٤,٥,٦,٧,٨,٩,١٠,

۲۱,۲۲,۲۳,۲٤,۲٥,۲٦,۲۷,۲۸,۲۹,۳۰,

the next beta will have:

\setuplinenumbering[conversion=arabicdecimals]

What's wrong with 'persiannumerals' and 'arabicnumerals' which we had
before? They are not supposed to by synonymous for abjadnumerals... In
any case we need

U+: [0030-0039] -> [0660-0669]: arabicdecimals
U+: [0030-0039] -> [06F0-06F9]: persiandecimals

don't confuse decimals with alphabetic ones

a b c ... z aa ab ac ... az ....

vs

1 2 3 ... 10 11 12

so decimals is mapping chars 0-9 onto whatever else, in principle we can have 15 => ae and 21 => ba
