It will be good to support metrics values with IEEE 754 double-precision binary floating-point format: binary64 - src

We have Decimals as values with metric type 'd'. The proposal for this new type is the letter f.

Reasons: standard in many industries with automation and interoperability between operating systems and programming languages.
