+   * When there is a lost in scale, rounding is required to be performed when 
performing casts.
+   * For types that have a fix scale, the results of the cast will need to be 
the same for COW and MOR.

+   * NOTE: COW uses Spark's default rounding of HALF_UP (if Spark entry points 
are used).

+   * Floating point types are not considered here as they are susceptible to 
floating point rounding errors.

+   *   <li>float -> decimal: HALF_EVEN</li>

Review Comment:
   spark always use HALF_UP to cast  FractionalType(float/double) to DecimalType
   why we use HAL_EVEN to cast float -> decimal     
   BTW  hive/presto also use HALF_UP
