Static data 0: revamped TimeInt (#5534)

_Commits make no sense, review the final changelog directly._

_All the interesting bits happen in `re_log_types/time_point` & `re_sdk`
-- everything else is just change propagation._


- `TimeInt` now ranges from `i64:MIN + 1` to `i64::MAX`.
- `TimeInt::STATIC`, which takes the place of the now illegal
`TimeInt(i64::MIN)`, is now _the only way_ of identifying static data.
- It is impossible to create `TimeInt::STATIC` inadvertently -- users of
the SDK cannot set the clock to that value.
- Similarly, it is impossible to create a `TimeRange`, a `TimePoint`, a
`LatestAtQuery` or a `RangeQuery` that includes `TimeInt::STATIC`.
If static data exists, that's what will be returned, unconditionally --
there's no such thing as querying for it explicitely.
- `TimePoint::timeless` is gone -- we already have `TimePoint::default`
that we use all over the place, we don't need two ways of doing the same
thing.

There still exists a logical mapping between an empty `TimePoint` and
static data, as that is how one represents static data on the wire --
terminology wise: "a timeless timepoint results in static data".

Similar to the "ensure `RowId`s are unique" refactor from back when,
this seemingly tiny change on the surface will vastly simplify
downstream code that finally has some invariants to rely on.

- Fixes #4832
- Related to #5264


---

Part of a PR series that removes the concept of timeless data in favor
of the much simpler concept of static data:
