The new validation check is correctly throwing an error, but it looks like we 
also need to add this validation when creating decimal arrays since the current 
test is creating invalid arrays before the cast:
   > > ```rust
   > > let array = vec![Some(i128::MAX), Some(i128::MIN)];
   > > let input_decimal_array = create_decimal_array(array, 10, 3).unwrap();
   > > ```

   > On second thoughts, it seems it was an intentional design decision not to 
validate this on array creation. Instead, an `array.validate_decimal_precision` 
method can optionally be called on the array to validate it after creation, so 
we should probably just update the test as needed (@alamb @tustvold perhaps you 
could correct me if I am wrong about this).
   Changed the test to pass.
