What is the shortest fastener that can be used to securely attach the metal roof to the roof deck?

This will vary from panel to panel based upon design and testing. Certainly anything that penetrates the decking is fine. However, to get more detailed than that, you need to check with the roofing manufacturer. I am sorry I cannot be of more help.
