Title:
  coreutils: printf formatting bug for nb_NO and nn_NO locales

Status in GLibC:
  Invalid
Status in coreutils package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I just discovered a printf bug for at least the nb_NO and nn_NO
  locales when printing numbers with thousands separator. To reproduce:

  #!/bin/bash
  for l in de_DE en_US nb_NO ; do
     echo "LC_NUMERIC=$l.UTF-8"
     for n in 1 100 1000 10000 100000 1000000 10000000 ; do
        LC_NUMERIC=$l.UTF-8 /usr/bin/printf "<%'10d>\n" $n
     done
  done

  The expected output of "%'10d" is a right-formatted number string with
  10 characters.

  The output of the test script is fine for e.g. LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8
  and LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8:

  LC_NUMERIC=de_DE.UTF-8
  <         1>
  <       100>
  <     1.000>
  <    10.000>
  <   100.000>
  < 1.000.000>
  <10.000.000>
  LC_NUMERIC=en_US.UTF-8
  <         1>
  <       100>
  <     1,000>
  <    10,000>
  <   100,000>
  < 1,000,000>
  <10,000,000>

  However, for LC_NUMERIC=nb_NO.UTF-8 and LC_NUMERIC=nn_NO.UTF-8, the
  formatting is wrong:

  LC_NUMERIC=nb_NO.UTF-8
  <         1>
  <       100>
  <   1 000>
  <  10 000>
  < 100 000>
  <1 000 000>
  <10 000 000>
  LC_NUMERIC=nn_NO.UTF-8
  <         1>
  <       100>
  <   1 000>
  <  10 000>
  < 100 000>
  <1 000 000>
  <10 000 000>

  I reproduced the issue with coreutils-8.32-4.1ubuntu1.1 (Ubuntu 22.04)
  as well as coreutils-9.3-5.fc39.x86_64 (Fedora 39).
