Locale::Currency::Format is used to format the overdue fine printed using
items.fines in the overdue notices. I am not sure if it's used in other places.

The module has not seen a new version in a longer while and is buggy for some
currencies:

COP (Colombian peso) - wrong currency symbol
RSD (Serbian dinar) - wrong currency symbol
TYR (Turkey) - amounts are rounded and printed without decimals

What we do at the moment is adding "wrong" codes for those so the formatting is
avoided... but when you want to use acq etc this could be a bigger issue.

Maybe we shoudl replace the module by enabling the use of the price filter in
all notices if not the case yet and treat the existing placeholder items.fine
as if the price filter was used?
