Cellphone number generation (Less strict variant). For counties where it is impossible to easily distinguish and generate cellphone and landline numbers, generating any valid number would be sufficient. Reasoning: when a service that only has basic phone numbers checks, for counties where it's not trivial to tell them apart, it's ok to generate anything since the other side won't be able to tell the difference anyway. |

This discussion is to keep track of suggestions for further improvements to the
faker.phone.number()method.In v9 this is already being changed to use a "style" parameter.

However there may be use-cases which are not well covered by the eexisting "styles"
