Arith: informative err msg on '.' radix point in non-'.' locales

Browse source 
Scripts that use floating point shell arithmetic confusingly fail
with 'arithmetic syntax error' when running in a locale that uses
',' as the radix point, because '.' is generally assumed by
scripts. The error message is confounding as the problem is not a
syntax error but a locale that is incompatible with the script.

src/cmd/ksh93/sh/arith.c:
- If the locale's radix point is not '.' but a '.' is found in its
  place, issue an informative error message that instructs setting
  LC_NUMERIC=C.
