hey :slightly_smiling_face:
i am working on a kotlin multplatform library that supports jvm and js(node).
my complete code is common code.

when i convert floats without decimals to string it behaves different on jvm and js.

```@Test
fun `float conversion to string`() {
  // succeeds on node JS - fails on JVM
  assertEquals(25f.toString(), "25")
  // succeeds on JVM - fails on node JS
  assertEquals(25f.toString(), "25.0")
}```
how can i make sure it behaves consistent? or at least make my tests work against jvm and js?

Workaround is just to do sting templating as the expected value for now

Is there a multiplatform string formatter library available that one could leverage?
