[Bug]: protocolpool create-continuous-pool panics

[JulianToledano]

Is there an existing issue for this?

What happened?

When calling create-continuous-fund with a percentage expressed as a float, the command panics.

As I understand, auto-cli generates dynamicpb messages using protoreflect message Descriptor() and Interface(). In the case of MsgCreateContinuousFund, the percentage is set as a human-readable number.

Thus, it fails when decoding, as the unmarshalling of LegacyDec expects a machine representation of the floating-point number.

panic: math/big: cannot unmarshal "0.1" into a *big.Int

This looks like an issue, but made me realize we shouldn't be exposing that command at all, given that it's meant to be used only through gov proposals

We should expose the command, it will create a gov proposal thanks to https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/03d70aa/x/protocolpool/autocli.go#L73
