Expected behavior

Chart y-axis should automatically rescale to match the range of the provided input data, provided the data points are within the permitted range for js Number.

Current behavior

If a dataset for the chart includes Number.MAX_VALUE (approx 1.7976931348623157e+308), then upon attempting to rescale the y-axis, the chart is no longer rendered.

Additionally, the tab containing the chart may crash with a SIGILL message (when testing in chrome).

The issue seems to be related to the range of the points in the dataset. The same behaviour can be seen if Number.MIN_VALUE is used.

Reproducible sample

https://codepen.io/leelenaleee/pen/WNyJXEe

Optional extra steps/info to reproduce

The bug can be replicated in the default codepen:

1. Add Number.MAX_VALUE to the data field on line 8 in the JS section: data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 1.79e308]
2. Wait for chart.js to automatically rescale the y-axis.
3. The chart will disappear, in some cases the codepen component may crash. (See the example image below)

Possible solution

I think the default y-axis scaling is attempting to go up to 2.00e308 or some other round number that exceeds Number.MAX_VALUE, the axis ranges should be clipped to the range of a js Number.

Context

My application is using chart.js to stream real-time data using chartjs-plugin-streaming. This issue was identified when testing edgecases for possible input values. It is possible to work around this by excluding extreme values from the datasets passed into chart.js.
