in certain cases excessive trailing zeros could cause incorrect
rounding from long double to double or float in decfloat.
e.g. in strtof("9444733528689243848704.000000", 0) the argument
is 0x1.000001p+73, exactly halfway between two representible floats,
this incorrectly got rounded to 0x1.000002p+73 instead of 0x1p+73,
but with less trailing 0 the rounding was fine.
the fix makes sure that the z index always points one past the last
non-zero digit in the base 10^9 representation, this way trailing
zeros don't affect the rounding logic.
