  Using localized digits is not a just i18n like an edit summary but a more or 
less individual L10N for the archive path. Always using localizes digits would 
break these paths if
  
  - NON_LATIN_DIGITS 
<https://doc.wikimedia.org/pywikibot/master/_modules/userinterfaces/transliteration.html#NON_LATIN_DIGITS>
 are expanded
  - site.lang changes for the given site.code
  - users prefer latin digits for their local archives because they might be 
non-natural speakers for the given wiki
  - there are already latin digits in the current archives paths
  
  btw i18n is english by default and any other language within the fallback 
sequence is used if the message has a translation. Note: there is no fallback 
for the localized digits e.g. for azb, glk, mzn (currently).
