[SPARK-21332][SQL] Incorrect result type inferred for some decimal
expressions
## What changes were proposed in this pull request?
This PR changes the direction of expression transformation in the
DecimalPrecision rule. Previously, the expressions were transformed down, which
led to incorrect result types when decimal expressions had other decimal
expressions as their operands. The root cause of this issue was in visiting
outer nodes before their children. Consider the example below:
```
val inputSchema = StructType(StructField("col", DecimalType(26, 6)) ::
Nil)
val sc = spark.sparkContext
val rdd = sc.parallelize(1 to 2).map(_ => Row(BigDecimal(12)))
val df = spark.createDataFrame(rdd, inputSchema)
// Works correctly since no nested decimal expression is involved
// Expected result type: (26, 6) * (26, 6) = (38, 12)
df.select($"col" * $"col").explain(true)
df.select($"col" * $"col").printSchema()
// Gives a wrong result since there is a nested decimal expression that
should be visited first
// Expected result type: ((26, 6) * (26, 6)) * (26, 6) = (38, 12) *
(26, 6) = (38, 18)
df.select($"col" * $"col" * $"col").explain(true)
df.select($"col" * $"col" * $"col").printSchema()
```
The example above gives the following output:
```
// Correct result without sub-expressions
== Parsed Logical Plan ==
'Project [('col * 'col) AS (col * col)#4]
+- LogicalRDD [col#1]
== Analyzed Logical Plan ==
(col * col): decimal(38,12)
