`DecimalFormat` throws `NumberFormatException: Infinity` on large `BigDecimal` (works on JVM)

[rpiaggio]

Scala: 2.13.8
Scala.js: 1.9.0

The following code:

  import java.text.DecimalFormat
  val x         = BigDecimal("2e333")
  val formatter = new DecimalFormat("0.0E0")
  println(formatter.format(x.bigDecimal))

Results in:

• JVM (Temurin 17.0.1+12):
  • 2.0E333
• JS (Chrome 99.0.4844.51):
