Stan CSV file format doc https://mc-stan.org/docs/cmdstan-guide/stan_csv_apdx.html says "values are written in decimal notation with at most 6 digits of precision.", but CmdStan command line options doc https://mc-stan.org/docs/cmdstan-guide/command_line_options.html says "The keyword value pair sig_figs= specifies the number of significant digits for all numerical values in the output files."

I can fix the Stan CSV file format doc to mention sig_fig, too. I made this issue, so that I don't forget
