[C++] Improve precision range error messages for Decimal128Type/Decimal256Type #30372

Description

@asfimport

The error message surfaces in R like so:

decimal(0, 2)
Error: Invalid: Decimal precision out of range: 0

and

decimal(100, 2)
Error: Invalid: Decimal precision out of range: 100

 
Could we improve the error message to be a bit more informative? As it is it doesn't specify what the range should be (1 to 38 for Decimal128Type, for example).
