[C Data] Format.asString emits locale dependent digits in format strings

Inizia in c/src/main/java/org/apache/arrow/c/Format.java, nelle chiamate a String.format collegate nell’issue, quindi esegui la riproduzione fornita con la locale ar-EG. Il lavoro è completato quando Format.asString emette cifre ASCII per i parametri FixedSizeList, FixedSizeBinary e Decimal, mentre il comportamento esistente di importazione Java rimane compatibile.

Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.

Format.asString builds the parameterised format strings with String.format("+w:%d", ...) and no explicit Locale. java.util.Formatter localises the digits of %d with Locale.getDefault(Locale.Category.FORMAT), so on a JVM whose default locale uses digits outside ASCII (ar-EG, fa-IR, bn-BD, mr-IN, 98 of the 1069 locales available on JDK 21) a FixedSizeList(8) is exported as +w:٨ instead of +w:8. The same applies to FixedSizeBinary and Decimal.

Other implementations parse the parameter as an ASCII integer and reject the string. arrow-rs fails at https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/blob/58.0.0/arrow-schema/src/ffi.rs#L494-L503 with C Data interface error: The FixedSizeList type requires an integer parameter representing number of elements per list. The Java importer reads the parameter with Integer.parseInt (https://github.com/apache/arrow-java/blob/v19.0.0/c/src/main/java/org/apache/arrow/c/Format.java#L352-L354), which accepts Unicode digits, so a Java to Java round trip does not expose the problem.

Reproduction (arrow-java 19.0.0 and 18.1.0, Temurin 21.0.6, run with --add-opens=java.base/java.nio=ALL-UNNAMED):

Java import: FixedSizeList(8)

With Locale.US the first line is +w:8 2b 77 3a 38.
