NaN keys crash Python range shuffle #8257

Description

@carloea2

Feature Summary

The JVM range partitioner converts Double.NaN to long zero before routing, while the Python partitioner performs arithmetic on NaN and raises ValueError. A workflow containing a NaN range key therefore crashes only in the Python engine.

Before: NaN range key raises ValueError in Python

After: NaN is treated as zero and routed like the JVM

Python should treat a NaN range key as zero, matching JVM double-to-long conversion and routing it to receiver B for this range.

Reproduction evidence:

Range-shuffle a NaN key across receivers A and B with minimum -10 and maximum 9.

Observed result:

ValueError: cannot convert float NaN to integer
scala_nan_to_long_index=1

Version and commit evidence:
