Standardised score conversion would return a negative total score for
https://osu.ppy.sh/scores/taiko/182230346.
The underlying reason for this is that the estimation of the accuracy
portion for a score can be above the actual accuracy portion in the
taiko ruleset.
When calculating the maximum accuracy portion achievable,
`TaikoLegacyScoreSimulator` will include the extra 300 points from
a double hit on a strong hit, per strong hit. However, this double hit
is not factored into accuracy.
Both of the aforementioned facts mean that in taiko
maximumLegacyAccuracyScore * score.Accuracy
- which normally in other rulesets can be used pretty reliably as the
exact number of points gained from the accuracy portion - is an
estimate in the case of taiko, and an _upper_ estimate at that,
because it implicitly assumes that the user has also hit
`score.Accuracy` percent of all double hits possible in the beatmap. If
this assumption is not upheld, then the user will have earned _less_
points than that from the accuracy portion, which means that the combo
proportion estimate will go below zero.
It is possible that this has happened on other scores before, but did
not result in the total score going negative as the accuracy portion
gained would have counteracted the effect of that due to being larger in
magnitude than the score loss incurred from the negative combo
portion. In the case of the score in question this was not the case due
to very low accuracy _and_ very low max combo.

Closes https://github.com/ppy/osu/issues/25860
Users reported that some stable scores would convert to large negative
total scores in lazer after the introduction of combo exponent. Those
large negative total scores were actually mangled NaNs.
The root cause of this was the following calculation going below zero
unexpectedly:
8e8d9b2cd9/osu.Game/Database/StandardisedScoreMigrationTools.cs (L323)
which then propagates negative numbers onward until
8e8d9b2cd9/osu.Game/Database/StandardisedScoreMigrationTools.cs (L337)
which yields a NaN due to attempting to take the square root of a
negative number.
To fix, clamp `comboPortionInScoreV1` to sane limits: to
`comboPortionFromLongestComboInScoreV1` from below, and to
`maximumAchievableComboPortionInScoreV1` from above. This is a less
direct fix than perhaps imagined, but it seems like a better one as it
will also affect the calculation of both the lower and the upper
estimate of the score.
