Do rounding down and up separately, not as an interval.

I think this will require our own version of power_by_squaring, in order to be able to specify the rounding mode to use in the multiplications.

In this particular case, it's not clear that this will be faster than changing the rounding mode for large powers.

I believe this has been addressed in PR #593, although there is still some room for improvement when it comes to performance. But presumably we should open a new issue if this rises again.
