Fixed: Support non-breaking spaces in numeric strings
(OFBIZ-13168)
Explanation
In forms, numeric fields are represented by an input with type "text", which
allows user to enter/paste all characters, including non-breaking spaces
('\u00A0', '\u202F', '\u2007'), like "29 000" (the space is `\u202F`). More
specifically, a user can copy/paste a string from an external tool which uses
non-breaking spaces as a thousands separator, and expect that a visually
correct string will be correctly interpreted by OFBiz.
OFBiz uses `java.text.NumberFormat::parse` method, which does not support
non-breaking spaces : characters after this kind of spaces are simply ignored,
and "29 000" becomes "29".
This PR only illustrates the problem and a way of fixing it, I'm not sure
that this would be a good solution (maybe handle submitted strings elsewhere ?
maybe more upstream ?).
Thanks: Nereide team
