small numbers and Scientific Notation support in utility functions

[JarbasAl]

a few considerations about extract_number and pronounce_number:

names of small numbers support

like PR MycroftAI/mycroft-core#1646 and MycroftAI/mycroft-core#1642 do for big numbers, support for long and short scale (PR MycroftAI/mycroft-core#1663 ) should be added for small numbers in order to include all languages

relevant information:

• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_small_numbers
• https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_and_short_scales

supporting Scientific notation

a lab setting is one of the places an AI assistant makes a lot of sense, this should be a default part of mycroft-core

extract_number ( PR MycroftAI/mycroft-core#1652 ) and pronounce_number (PR MycroftAI/mycroft-core#1653) should handle scientific notation, optionally if a flag is set

scientific notation pronouncing cases:

• (times/by) 10 to the (minus/negative/positive/plus/ ) (n/nth) (power / )
• (times/by) 10 to the power of (minus/negative/positive/plus/ ) n
• (times/by) 10 to the (minus/negative/positive/plus/ ) power of n
• (times/by) 10 (exponentiated/raised/elevated) to (minus/negative/positive/plus/ ) ( n / nth )

Closing this since it's a lingua-franca issue.

@JarbasAl I seem to recall that you were working on extract_number(). Will you be covering this in that round?
