Clarification on Structured Address

Post is about issue13190 - Add structured address

This is the country for which I know the address format best:

        <record model="party.address.format" id="address_format_ro">
            <field name="country_code">RO</field>
            <field name="format_">${attn} ${party_name}
${street}
${postal_code} ${CITY}
${COUNTRY}</field>
            <field name="street_format">${street_name}, ${building_number}, ${unit_number}, ${floor_number}, ${room_number}
${building_name}</field>
            <field name="building_number_format">nr. {}</field>
            <field name="unit_number_format">bl. {}</field>
            <field name="floor_number_format">sc. {}</field>
            <field name="room_number_format">ap. {}</field>
        </record>

I could not find any explanations what the different fields of iso 20022 refer to exactly,
so I would like to confirm the interpretation of the fields here:

building_number_format: As stated in issue 13190, this refers to Street number. For romanian nr. is good.
unit_number_format: What does unit refer to? does it refer to the building? For ex. I live on say Str. Streetname, nr. 123, building 12, floor 1, apartment, 123.
floor_number_format: room_number_format`: This is confusing to me. Does this refer to apartment number inside a building, or does it refer to room inside an apartment? I presume it refers to apartment number, in this case I will add a help text to the respective field. Caveat, an apartment usually has multiple rooms.

The format comes from https://www.upu.int/en/Postal-Solutions/Programmes-Services/Addressing-Solutions
The different fields have been defined to create the most common/sharable concepts between all the formats.

No sanity comes from 100% corectness, here is the expedient interpretation for romania:

<field name="street_format">${street_name}, ${building_number}, ${building_name}, ${floor_number}, ${unit_number}, ${room_number}</field>

<field name="building_number_format">nr. {}</field>
<field name="unit_number_format">ap. {}</field>
Apartment, for residential buildings, for commerical probably blank.

<field name="floor_number_format">et. {}</field>
<field name="room_number_format">camera {}</field>
Probably more useful for commercial/office buildings. Probably blank for residential.

building_name: here I put the block (bl.) and scara (sc., stairwell).

The building name is for the name of the building if it has one.
We can not change this semantic.
