      \brief MissingValuesPolicy specifies how a missing value will be shown in a line diagram.

      Missing value is assumed if the data cell contains a QVariant that can not be
      interpreted as a double, or if the data cell is hidden while its dataset is not hidden.

      \li \c MissingValuesAreBridged the default: No markers will be shown for missing values
      but the line will be bridged if there is at least one valid cell before and after
      the missing value(s), otherwise the segment will be hidden.
      \li \c MissingValuesHideSegments Line segments starting with a missing value will
      not be shown, and no markers will be shown for missing values, so this will look like
      a piece of the line is missing.
      \li \c MissingValuesShownAsZero Missing value(s) will be treated like normal zero values,
      and markers will shown for them too, so there will be no visible difference between a
      zero value and a missing value.
      \li \c MissingValuesPolicyIgnored (internal value, do not use)
