PDFBOX-4742: throw Exception on NaN and Infinity

> Incorrect handling of float Infinity and NaN
> --------------------------------------------
>
>                 Key: PDFBOX-4742
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4742
>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: PDModel, Writing
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.8, 2.0.18
>            Reporter: Jose Novacho
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 2.0.19, 3.0.0 PDFBox
>
>         Attachments: Hello World.pdf
>

> When creating document, there is an issue if the operand for a command is floating number positive or negative Infinity, or NaN.
> The problem is in method {{{color:#172b4d} org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDPageContentStream#write. {color}}} In case the method {{org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDPageContentStream#writeOperand(float)}} receives as operand a floating number with value {{Float.POSITIVE_INFINITY}} or {{Float.NEGATIVE_INFINITY}} the result of formating is symbol for infinity: ∞ (unicode 0x221E). The NaN produce unicode symbol 0xFFFD (replacement character). This is then later converted to bytes using the US_ASCII encoding which produces symbol *?* (0x3F) this symbol is then put into the content stream and the resulting PDF is invalid.

> Mimimal working example to reproduce this issue.

> {code:java}
> public class InfiniteError {
>     public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
>         PDDocument document = new PDDocument();
>         PDPage page = new PDPage();
>         document.addPage(page);        
>         PDFont font = PDType1Font.HELVETICA_BOLD;
>         PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page, PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.OVERWRITE, false);
>         contentStream.beginText();
>         contentStream.setFont(font, 12);
>         contentStream.newLineAtOffset(100, Float.POSITIVE_INFINITY); // incorrect value 
>         contentStream.showText("Hello World");
>         contentStream.endText();
>         contentStream.close();
>         document.save("Hello World.pdf");
>         document.close();
>     }
