Using a `CategoricalIndex` with interval categories as column index breaks operations on a `DataFrame`
#### Code Sample, a copy-pastable example if possible

```python
>>> a = pd.DataFrame([[1, 2]], columns=pd.CategoricalIndex(pd.interval_range(start=0.0, end=2.0)))
>>> a.T * 100

              0
(0.0, 1.0]  100
(1.0, 2.0]  200

>>> a * 100

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-166-9b495e0b7c52> in <module>()
----> 1 a * 100

~/anaconda3/envs/python3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pandas/core/ops.py in f(self, other, axis, level, fill_value)
   2034 
   2035             assert np.ndim(other) == 0
-> 2036             return self._combine_const(other, op)
   2037 
   2038     f.__name__ = op_name

...

TypeError: Cannot cast array data from dtype('float64') to dtype('<U32') according to the rule 'safe'
```

#### Problem description

When the columns index is a `CategoricalIndex` with interval categories, basic operations like multiplication by a scalar are broken.

The minimal example is a contrived case, but the situation can arise in common data analysis workflows:
1) Use `pd.cut` to bin floating point values
2) Perform a `pivot_table` operation with the binned values as columns

For instance:
```python
df = pd.DataFrame({'values': [10.0, 21.0, 32.0, 43.0], 
                   'strings': ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D']})
df['intervals'] = pd.cut(df['values'], [0, 20, 40, 60])
p = df.pivot_table(index='strings', columns='intervals', values='values', aggfunc='sum')
```

A DataFrame with a column index of this kind is brokwn in other ways, for example it does not display as an HTML table in a Jupyter notebook, etc.


#### Expected Output

              
```
    (0.0, 1.0] (1.0, 2.0] 
0  100          200
```

#### Workaround

`df.columns = df.columns.categories` seems to make the DataFrame behave correctly.
