For floats with values larger than 1e16 or smaller than 1e-5, their string
representation uses scientific notation in Python, which causes
{{{numberformat.format}}} to return an erroneous output.
{{{
>>> format(0.0000000000000000009, '.', 2)
'9e-19.00'
>>> format(1e16, '.', 2, thousand_sep=',', grouping=3,
force_grouping=True)
'1e,+16.00'
}}}
This is similar to #23935 but that was only fixed for Decimal types.
