Previous behaviour was inconsistant and was not tested for. This
commit ensures that z^inf and inf^z return reasonable and consistant
values.

See #24 for the dicussion on the behaviour which can be summaried as:

z ^ Infinity === NaN
Infinity ^ z === Infinity if Im(z) === 0 and Re(z) > 0
Infinity ^ z === 0 if Re(z) < 0
Infinity ^ 0 === 1
Infinity ^ z === NaN otherwise

Should the imaginary part of z be compared exactly to 0 here or should Complex['EPSILON'] be used?
