Review Comment:
   The out-of-table path misrounds exact halfway values: 
`decimal128.FromString("5e-41", 38, 40)` returns coefficient 0 instead of 1, 
with the symmetric error for negative input. The same issue occurs in 
`arrow/decimal256/decimal256.go:177`: `FromString("5e-93", 76, 92)` returns 0 
instead of 1. Resolve ties using the original decimal coefficient/exponent 
rather than the rounded binary approximation, retain the bounded-allocation 
guards, and add positive and negative halfway regression cases for both types.
