Fix latex printing of undefined functions raised to a power

[mohamedrezk122]

The used notation to print functions raised to a power is standardized across all types of functions, the recognized and not recognized ones. The undefined functions raised to power should be wrapped between parenthesis. Also, corresponding tests have been modified.

Fixes #24596

Brief description of what is fixed or changed

The used notation to print functions raised to a power is standardized across all types of functions, the recognized and not recognized ones. The undefined functions raised to power should be wrapped between parenthesis.

So instead of func**2(x) it should be (func(x))**2 but for regular functions like trigonometric functions, they stay the same sin**2(x)

#### Other comments
<!-- @asmeurer  The tests are modified,  the bot will raise errors.-->

#### Release Notes

<!-- Write the release notes for this release below between the BEGIN and END
statements. The basic format is a bulleted list with the name of the subpackage
and the release note for this PR. For example:

* solvers
  * Added a new solver for logarithmic equations.

* functions
  * Fixed a bug with log of integers. Formerly, `log(-x)` incorrectly gave `-log(x)`.

* physics.units
  * Corrected a semantical error in the conversion between volt and statvolt which
    reported the volt as being larger than the statvolt.

or if no release note(s) should be included use:

NO ENTRY

Benchmark results from GitHub Actions

Lower numbers are good, higher numbers are bad. A ratio less than 1 means a speed up and greater than 1 means a slowdown. Green lines beginning with + are slowdowns (the PR is slower then master or master is slower than the previous release). Red lines beginning with - are speedups.

@haru-44 I don't understand what do you mean with this, can you elaborate more ?

[haru-44]

I understand that the functions in accepted_latex_functions are printed as $\sin^2(x)$, not $\sin(x)^2$. I have two points to make.

• Is it common to write not only sin and cos but also log and re this way? (This I simply don't know.)
• From reading the comments in accepted_latex_functions, this list should not be used to determine whether to print $\sin(x)^2$ or $\sin^2(x)$. I think we should have our own list of target functions.

[mohamedrezk122]

I guess that makes sense, I will try to fix it.
