--[[
This function converts an integer value into a numeral followed by ordinal indicator.
The output string might contain HTML tags.
 
Usage:
{{#invoke:Ordinal|ordinal|1=|2=|sup=}}
{{#invoke:Ordinal|ordinal}} - uses the caller's parameters
 
Parameters
    1: Any number or string.
    2: Set to "d" if the module should display "d" instead of "nd" and "rd".
    sup: Set to yes/no to toggle superscript ordinal suffix.
