The eos-transfers example crashes when started in replay mode and start at block -1 #171

When the eos-transfers example is run via yarn example eos-transfers, it works. However, is you start modifying values to see demux's difference behaviours, it crashes.

Changing startAtBlock from 50000000 to -1:

const actionReader = new NodeosActionReader({
  startAtBlock: -1,
  onlyIrreversible: false,
  nodeosEndpoint: "https://api.eosnewyork.io"
})

And changing watch to be in replay mode:

actionWatcher.watch(true)

Will crash on the first block with this error:

It is caused by ObjectActionHandler's rollbackTo trying to create an array with negative length, since latestBlockNumber is 0 (by default), and blockNumber will be something like 68149703.

I'm trying to understand why is a rollback attempted here, maybe you can shed some light on this.
