Subject: [PATCH] Breakpoint bad (-ve or too large) x-ranges to m4

This should never really happen but when it does it appears to be a race
with writing startup pre-graphics-formatter array data where we get
`x_end` epoch value subtracting some really small offset value (like
`-/+0.5`) or the opposite where the `x_start` is epoch and `x_end` is
small.

This adds a warning msg and `breakpoint()` as well as guards around the
entire code downsampling code path so that when resumed the downsampling
cycle should just be skipped and avoid a crash.
