Summary: [feature] make makefilename accept floats in %s

Initial Comment:
while fiddling with the bug-fix for the missing "%c" in [makefilename] (see #1862168), i found that 
[makefilename %s] will safely ignore any number that it receives.

in theory this is nice and consistent behaviour.

in practice i find it weird that
[32(
|
[makefilename %s]

outputs nothing(!).

and 

[32(
|
[makefilename _%s+]

outputs "_+"

the attached patch uses "%g" to convert a number into a string which is then inserted as %s.
