Transform a Dinero object to a new scale.
Transforming to a higher scale means that the internal amount value increases by orders of magnitude. If you're using the default Dinero.js implementation (with the number calculator), be careful not to exceed the minimum and maximum safe integers.
info
When transforming to smaller scales, transformScale truncates the amount.
