Consider how hard it would be to allow Inf / -Inf #317
Description
For time points, could follow the duckdb approach of using INT64_MAX/MIN as special infinity values

For calendars, could define that if year = max_year + 1, then that is considered infinity? Similar with negative infinity. This could possibly work because the max year is defined to be 32767 due to the use of a short for year, but we store our year in an int due to having to be compatible with R. Since all calendar types have a year field, 32767 + 1 could be infinity?
After figuring out how the storage would work, then it would be a matter of fixing the print method and adding special support everywhere to ensure propagation is working as expected. Not easy!
