I had expected this to work:

julia> Decimal(10)^30 / Decimal(2)^100
Decimal(0, 0, 0)

With python:

In [9]: 10**30 / 2**100
Out[9]: 0.7888609052210118

Divide: implementation + dectest

Fixes JuliaMath#56

We now have:
```julia
julia> Decimal(10)^30 / Decimal(2)^100
0.7888609052210118054117285655
```

In Python:
```
>>> Decimal(10)**30 / Decimal(2)**100
Decimal('0.7888609052210118054117285655')
```
