Incorrect data type provided for freight_class attribute

[xaevik]

We began experiencing an issue with order exports failing due to an implicit cast conversion deprecation being thrown. Upon investigation it was revealed that freight_class has an incorrect data type defined:

module-shipper/src/Setup/Patch/Data/InstallFreightAttributes.php

Lines 77 to 78 in 321086b

	$catalogSetup->addAttribute(Product::ENTITY, 'freight_class', [
	'type' => 'int',

It should be decimal not int as there are numerous freight classes (e.g., 77.5) that cannot be treated as integers.

Edit: string might be a better option if a numeric primitive is not really needed.

We have patched our environments in the interim until this issue is fixed in upstream.
