Allows to select a rounding function for NumberFormat different than round "half-even". For example: ceil, floor, or truncate.
Such option is present on Unicode Technical Standard #35, part 3 Numbers, which says "An implementation may allow the specification of a rounding mode to determine how values are rounded".

let formatUsingHalfEvenRounding = new Intl.NumberFormat("en").format(Math.PI);
// "3.142"
let formatUsingFloorRounding = new Intl.NumberFormat("en", {round: Math.floor}).format(Math.PI);
// "3.141"
let formatCurrencyUsingCeilRounding = new Intl.NumberFormat("en", {
style: "currency",
currency: "USD",
currencyDisplay: "symbol",
round: Math.ceil
}).format(9.991);
// "$10.00"
