Description
Is there a strong reason to go from PowUOp to math.ipow as opposed to lowering to a sequence of multiplications?
Is there any existing lowering from math.ipow to the core dialects?

Research direction
Start in lib/Conversion/MooreToCore/MooreToCore.cpp at the linked lowering around lines 1379-1398, and inspect how PowUOp is converted to math.ipow. Search the repository for lowerings from math.ipow to core dialects and compare the alternatives; done means reaching and documenting a decided lowering approach.
