A cleanup for the patch for MDEV-12852, MDEV-12853, MDEV-12869
The patch broke expressions like CAST(1.0e+300 AS SIGNED INT) in binary protocol, e.g.: mtr --ps cast Short real numbers like 1.0e+300 can return huge values, so using args[0]->max_length is not reliable to choose properly the result type for Item_func_signed and Item_func_unsigned (between INT and BIGINT). Setting Item_[un]signed_typecast::max_length to MAX_BIGINT_WIDTH when doing CAST from FLOAT/DOUBLE, to force type_handler() return &type_handler_longlong rather than &type_handler_long.
