promotion for binary arithmetic with casted decimal type

   I am actually slightly -1 with this proposal.
   If this is OK, in following case
   ```
   scala> Seq(2147483647).toDF("c").createOrReplaceTempView("foobar")
   
   scala> spark.sql("select cast(c*c as long) from foobar").show()
   +-----------------------+
   |CAST((c * c) AS BIGINT)|
   +-----------------------+
   |                      1|
   +-----------------------+
   ```
   
   We might need to have a similar new rule to convert the SQL statement as 
   ```
   spark.sql("select cast(c as long)*cast(c as Long) from foobar").show()
   +---------------------------------------+
   |(CAST(c AS BIGINT) * CAST(c AS BIGINT))|
   +---------------------------------------+
   |                    4611686014132420609|
   +---------------------------------------+
   ```
   
   
   I also tried PostgreSQL
   ```
   create table t(i int);
   insert into t values(2147483647);
   select cast(i*i as bigint) from t;
   ```
   And it shows error `integer out of range`. So, for now, I don't think there 
is such optimization in PostgreSQL.
