tdf#143707 - Change strategy to support suffix type characters

In order to support the correct data type of numeric constants,
booleans, and default values for strings, the strategy to transport the
data type character to the runtime has been changed.

The type character will be added after the literal and the string
termination symbol in order to keep compatibility. This allows to
retrieve the correct type in StepLOADNC and in StepPARAM.

Any legacy written images are still possible to process, since if there
is a suffix type character where the data type character was directly
written after the numeric constant, it will be processed in StepLOADNC.

Without this fix, an optional parameter of type Variant, would still
include the suffixe type character, and will not be converted to the
correct type in StepPARAM.
