Add a replacing NaN with null version of save JSON function. Currently, if there is any `nan` in the input files or during calculations within `simulariumio` using `numpy`, it might break the output JSON since JSON does not support `NaN` as a valid numerical value. This new implemented `save_replacing_nan` saves the `TrajectoryData` to a `JSON` while replacing all `NaN` with `null` (which is supported by `JSON`). This should fix the error you get when uploading the `.simularium` to the simularium website converted from `NERDSS` trajectory with `simulariumio`.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I wonder if we could do this with just an additional function argument to the main save function rather than having an entirely different function?

This new implemented
save_replacing_nansaves theTrajectoryDatato aJSONwhile replacing allNaNwithnull(which is supported byJSON). This should fix the error you get when uploading the.simulariumto the simularium website converted fromNERDSStrajectory withsimulariumio.A new pytest for this function is included.
