Replace a multibyte decimal point in dump() of a long double (#5993)

The snprintf path of dump_float(), used when number_float_t is neither
IEEE single nor double (a long double on x86-64 and aarch64 Linux), read
localeconv()->decimal_point and ->thousands_sep as single chars. Under a
locale with a multibyte decimal point (glibc's ps_AF: U+066B), it removed
the first byte as a "thousands separator" and left the second one in the
output, so 1.5L dumped as "1\xab5.0".

Find the whole decimal point with std::search and replace it with '.',
as the parser already does since #5660. Drop the thousands-separator
removal: %g never groups digits.
