Notes
This function parses a string to return a number but
in a locale-aware manner. It will normalise grouping
characters and decimal separators, different forms of
the +
and -
symbols that appear in Unicode and
strips any _
characters that might be used for
formatting in a string. It then parses the number
using the Elixir standard library functions.

{:ok, -1000000.34}
iex> Money.Cldr.Number.parse("1.000", locale: "de", number: :integer)
{:ok, 1000}
iex> Money.Cldr.Number.parse("+1.000,34", locale: "de", number: :integer)
