Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with the reported InfluxDB container and `influx bucket create --name "test" --shard-group-duration 10000w -r 0` command. Trace the bucket-creation path for how zero retention and shard-group duration are validated. Done means the command creates the bucket with infinite retention without the reported error.
