Geo Query $center with "NaN" coordinate does not error

      Currently, a 2dsphere-indexed collection has the following behavior:

      > db.geo.ensureIndex({geo: "2dsphere"});
      > db.geo.insert({geo:{ type: "Point", coordinates: [ -73.97, 40.77 ] }})
      > db.geo.findOne({geo:{ "$geoWithin" : { "$centerSphere" : [ [ NaN, 4 ], Infinity ] } }});

      	"$err" : "Can't canonicalize query: BadValue longitude/latitude is out of bounds, lng: nan lat: 4",
      	"code" : 17287
      }

          at (shell):1:8 at src/mongo/shell/query.js:259
      

      Which makes sense! However, if instead of using $centerSphere we use $center as the query specifier:

      > db.geo.findOne({geo:{ "$geoWithin" : { "$center" : [ [ NaN, 4 ], Infinity ] } }});
      null
      

      I think that the bad lat/long should return an error similar to the one for $centerSphere instead of null for the $center specifier.

      Similar behavior occurs when Infinity or -Infinity is passed as the lat/long for the $center and $centerSphere specifiers: it returns null for $center and an error for $centerSphere.
