pow_by_sq(num, integer_power)
Performs ‘Exponentiation by Squaring’, which is a reasonably fast algorithm to compute integer powers, by performing log(n) multiplication steps.
Depends on an implementation existing of Numbers.Protocols.Multiplication,
as well as (to support negative powers) an implementation of Numbers.Protocols.Division.
