Description
We handle `doubles`/`float64s` just fine by themselves
```sql
tmp> select 1.7e+308;
+----------+
| 1.7e+308 |
+----------+
| 1.7e+308 |
+----------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
```
but struggle when performing arithmetic with other types
```sql
tmp> select 1.7e+308 + 0;
+--------------+
| 1.7e+308 + 0 |
+--------------+
| 0 |
+--------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
tmp> select 1.7e+308 + 0.0;
+----------------+
| 1.7e+308 + 0.0 |
+----------------+
| 0.0 |
+----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
tmp> select 1.7e+308 + 1e10;
+-----------------+
| 1.7e+308 + 1e10 |
+-----------------+
| 10000000000 |
+-----------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
```
MySQL returns `1.7e308` for all tests above
It's possible the issue stems from our `DecimalTypeMaxPrecision = 65`
```sql
tmp> select 1.7e64 + 123;
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 1.7e64 + 123 |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 17000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000123 |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
tmp> select 1.7e65 + 123;
+--------------+
| 1.7e65 + 123 |
+--------------+
| 123 |
+--------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
```
