Control precision of number values passed to Alexa TTS service about openhab-alexa HOT 3 CLOSED

So it looks like the state value coming from the OH Rest API is raw. However, the formatting pattern is available in the API response. So that should be an easy change by normalizing an item state returned by the OH Rest API, if a formatting pattern is provided, using the sprintf.js module.

{
  "link": "http://localhost:8080/rest/items/TestNumber",
  "state": "1.23456789",
  "stateDescription": {
    "pattern": "%.5f",
    "readOnly": false,
    "options": []
  },
  "editable": false,
  "type": "Number",
  "name": "TestNumber",
  "label": "Test Number",
  "tags": [],
  "groupNames": []
}

Sounds reasonable to me, I am hoping to restart development this weekend and get a v3 beta out ASAP, I’ll take a look at this as well unless someone beats me too it.

I just submitted a PR implementing this feature based on the item state presentation format.
