Possible to end up with a finite box with EXTENT_NULL

All boxes get initialized with EXTENT_NULL. So it's possible that one sets the box minimum and maximum directly, and the box will still not have EXTENT_FINITE.

See this gazebo pull request for an example of the issues this might cause.

we may need to replace &Box::Min() and &Box::Max with Box::SetMin and Box::SetMax but that's an API change..

or change default min and max values to nans or infs to we know if they've been set or not.
