// DESCRIPTION:
//
// Raises complex A to the complex Zth power.
// Definition is per AMS55 # 4.2.8,
// analytically equivalent to cpow(a,z) = cexp(z clog(a)).
//
// ACCURACY:
//
// Relative error:
// arithmetic domain # trials peak rms
// IEEE -10,+10 30000 9.4e-15 1.5e-15
// Pow returns x**y, the base-x exponential of y.
// For generalized compatibility with math.Pow:
// Pow(0, ±0) returns 1+0i
// Pow(0, c) for real(c)<0 returns Inf+0i if imag(c) is zero, otherwise Inf+Inf i.
