WL#13127: Deprecate integer display width and ZEROFILL option

Affects: Server-8.0   —   Status: Complete

Deprecate the ZEROFILL attribute for numeric data types and the display width
attribute for integer types.

ZEROFILL and display width do not affect the storage size of the data type, only
the display width. How the numbers are displayed, can be controlled by other
means. For example, applications could use the LPAD function to zero-pad numbers
up to the desired width, or they could store the formatted numbers in CHAR columns.
