### Describe the bug At present, `power(decimal, float)` returns a decimal , which leads to problematic behavior: ``` > SELECT power(cast(2.5 as decimal(2,1)), 4.0); +--------------------------------+ | power(Float64(2.5),Float64(4)) | +--------------------------------+ | 3.9 | +--------------------------------+ 1 row(s) fetched. Elapsed 0.004 seconds. > SELECT power(cast(2.5 as decimal), 4.0); Arrow error: Arithmetic overflow: Cannot raise base 25000000000 to exp 4 ``` ### To Reproduce _No response_ ### Expected behavior Both queries should return `39.0625`, and probably of type `Float64`. ### Additional context _No response_ -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
