Issue description

Moving MeshInstance to an infinite or NaN coordinate causes this error

E 0:00:02:0077   instance_set_transform: Condition "!v.is_finite()" is true.
  <C++ Source>   servers/rendering/renderer_scene_cull.cpp:935 @ instance_set_transform()

That's great, but it's difficult to understand what does it mean. It would be better if error message read "Infinite coordinate provided to a mesh" or something like that so developers could more easily understand what happened and what do they need to look for in their code (i.e. divisions by zero)

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a MeshInstance3D
2. Set mesh to Cube
3. Assign a new script to it

extends Node3D


func _ready() -> void:
	self.position.x = NAN

Also consider that this can happen if scale/rotation are set to crazy values so it needs to cover those cases too. "Invalid Transform" or something.

I think "Invalid transform" is still too vague. It doesn't tell developer what did they do wrong and what they should do to fix it.
Maybe "NaN or Infinity used in transform"?

Ideally it would tell you whether it's Infinity, -Infinity, or NaN, and in which property it is, e.g. "NaN in scale X", though I imagine it would be harder to implement.
