I18N: Set C++ locale and format sizes according to the locale

Displaying a package size, an installation size, a download speed etc.
formats decimal numbers to 1-digit precision after the decimal point
(49.5 KiB). However, users expect the number to be formatted according
their locale. E.g. in cs_CZ.UTF-8, it is "49,5 KiB".

DNF5 formats these values with fmt::format() which utilizes C++ locale
if "L" formatting option is used.

C++ locale (std::locale::global()) and C locale (setlocale(),
C++-wrapped as std::setlocale()) are two different things and DNF5
only has set the C locale up to now.

This patch starts setting C++ locale, which also implicitly sets
C locale. This patch also modifies
libdnf5::cli::utils::units::format_size_aligned() to use the
locale-dependent decimal seperator (available since fmt-8.0.0).

I manually tested dnf5 and dnf5daemon-client and they work for me.

Though there is a risk that the new C++ locale will affect some code
uknown to me, like regular expression matching, or thread-specific
locales. If the affected code was unfixable, we can resort to saving
the desired C++ locale into a dedicated object accessible to
format_size_aligned() and pass it explicitly for fmt::format. Thorough
testing is welcome.
