Support for Series with NaN Timestamps in Neurosift Visualization

[alessandratrapani]

I encountered an issue when uploading a DANDI dataset containing a Series with "some" NaN timestamps. Neurosift is unable to generate the usual visualization for these Series.

I understand that storing NaN timestamps might be unconventional, but in this specific case, I could not do otherwise.

To facilitate debugging and reproducing the issue, I’ve created a synthetic dataset on DANDI Staging. This dataset contains examples of Series with NaN timestamps. Please let me know if additional information is needed or if I can assist further.

Thanks for preparing that example @alessandratrapani

I'm having a hard time knowing how to handle this since the timestamp handler (for irregular samples) heavily depends on the assumption that these timestamps are not NaN and are in ascending order. Could you explain some more about why the NaN are needed, what they represent, and that could help me figure out how to properly deal with them.
