In principle should fix #3949
Breaks a million other tests because decimal -> string formatting is slightly different from double -> string formatting, leading to errors where tests expect 1.000000 but get 1.0. This is probably not the only cause but it's very prevalent
Uses inferMinimalType from the
csv-sniffingbranch to determine whether or not the string should be interpreted as a decimal or double.Contributor agreement
