ftos is a quake-c function which converts a single floating point to a string (thus the contracted name f-to-s).
It is one of very few string methods in vanilla quake c
There are lots of different needs when turning numbers into strings. ftos has quirks most especially that it doesn't always produce a string containing only numbers.

| ftos(3.0) | "3" | 1 |
| ftos(3.1) | " 3.1" | 5 |
| ftos(23.1) | " 23.1" | 5 |
| ftos(123.1) | "123.1" | 5 |
