Creating a TimeSeries of IndexedEvent with indexes before epoch throws TypeError

[imaspeer]

The following code

const pond = require('pondjs');

const index = pond.Index.getIndexString('1d', new Date('1969-12-31')); // 1d--1
new pond.TimeSeries({columns: ['index', 'value'], points: [[index, 1]]});

which should be correct according to the documentation of TimeSeries, throws TypeError: Cannot read property 'begin' of undefined.

The error happens for any date before 1970-01-01, and it works correctly for any date after. Using an index string of the form 1969-12-01 also results in the same error.
