Subject: [PATCH 1/2] tests: fix --format='%4000f' expected output

Can be 1.000009... or 1.000008999, depending on representation.

* tests/datamash-output-format.pl: Check only the first 5 digits.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tests: disable --format="%a" test

Valid output can differ (e.g. 0x8.000p-3 vs 0x1.000p+0).

* tests/datamash-output-format.pl: Disable 'a1' test.
