Currency and Percent type of a Column

[zdrawku]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently, the igx-grid exposes default handling for column types like number - right aligned, string - left aligned, date and boolean. This should be expanded to better defaults for other column types - datetime, Currency, and Percent.

Describe the solution you'd like.

I would like to have Currency and Percent default column type handling

Describe alternatives you've considered

Use the default angular pipes as we do with the other column types like Date and Number.

@StefanIvanov, could you please consider this for the upcoming sprint - we need a design for the cell edit template when it comes to editing with dataType="currency". Here is a POC that you can use, I've used our igx-input-group component with both prefix and suffix definitions.

The editor will be shown upon cell edit. @damyanpetev already shared his opinion on the subject to consider using a plain input without suffixes or prefixes.

Let us know what are your thoughts.
