[charts] Add context to axis value formatter

[alexfauquette]

Part of #10928

[alexfauquette]

I'm hesitating with

• tickFormatter which is shorter and should not interfere with others
• valueTickFormatter which has the advantage to group all the formatters at the same place in the alphabetical order

This is an interesting situation. 🤔
tickValueFormatter seems like it makes the most sense, but have you considered going the other way - adding a context to the existing valueFormatter? 🤔

interface ValueFomatterContext {
  location: 'value' | 'tick' | 'tooltip';
  // or
  location?: 'tick' | 'tooltip';
}
///
valueFormatter?: (value: V, context: ValueFomatterContext) => string;

I did not had preferences between the two, but effectively it fixes the naming issue 👍

[LukasTy]

Yes, that is what I like the most about it.
Maybe I do not see some potential problems with it, but it feels that it would also be better suited for cases where we'd need to add the option to format the legend labels or something else as well 🙈

Great work! 👍 💯
Given the pivot in the solution, I took the liberty to update the PR title.
Feel free to update it if you can think of a more appropriate wording. 👌
