[issue7049] decimal.py: Three argument power issues

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

+1 for deprecating three-arg pow for the reasons given.
A user is much better-off composing well-defined operations
than using our short-cut, with our chosen assumptions.
Apologies for taking so long to think this one through.
