JDK-8122107 - InspectorPanel: Incorrect handling of some values
Description
Look at the attached test case, and in SB linked issue :
the API allows negative values. It does not make sense.
Only specific value such as -1 (USE_COMPUTED_SIZE) or -Infinity (USE_PREF_SIZE) should be permitted when it is possible.

If we're going to be hard-core, we also should deal with NaN

prefWidth / prefHeight / etc are fully bindable properties, so we really don't want to forbid any type of input. However, what we can do is on the prefWidth(height), etc methods is to ensure that the returned value is >= 0. That would be easy to do and seems entirely safe.

This is an issue with Region, not UI controls.
