Scale-preserving notation
The output format is the same as if you perform a MOVE from DECFLOAT to
type STRING, but the user-specific decimal point and thousands separator
are used. The length of the output is at most 46. The primary advantage
of this output style is that trailing zeros of the fractional part are
not cut off. It is guaranteed that a conversion back to the DECFLOAT
type recovers not just the original value, but also the scale.
Short form: Scale-preserving
