Description
### Checklist
- [X] I have searched for [similar issues](https://github.com/isl-org/Open3D/issues).
- [X] For Python issues, I have tested with the [latest development wheel](http://www.open3d.org/docs/latest/getting_started.html#development-version-pip).
- [X] I have checked the [release documentation](http://www.open3d.org/docs/release/) and the [latest documentation](http://www.open3d.org/docs/latest/) (for `master` branch).
### Describe the issue
When using `write_point_cloud` and reading that exact file again the coordinates have been altered, specifically rounded. See the example below where the output is:
```
42098
7958
```
The code counts the number of unique x-coords before writing and after reading. This should be the same count. I attached a sample file.
[1000_pos1.xyzrgb.csv](https://github.com/isl-org/Open3D/files/8476516/1000_pos1.xyzrgb.csv)
### Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
import open3d as o3d
import sys
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
filename = sys.argv[1]
pcd = o3d.io.read_point_cloud(filename=filename, format="xyzrgb", print_progress=True)
# print number of unique x-coords
print(pd.Series(np.array(pcd.points)[:,0]).nunique())
out_filename = filename.replace("xyzrgb.csv", "rgb.pcd")
o3d.io.write_point_cloud(out_filename, pcd)
pcd_read = o3d.io.read_point_cloud(filename=out_filename)
# print number of unique x-coords
print(pd.Series(np.array(pcd_read.points)[:,0]).nunique())
```
### Error message
There is no error message.
### Expected behavior
Same number of unique x-coordinates:
```
42098
42098
```
