BUG: Fixed DataFrame.__repr__ Type Error when column dtype is np.record (GH 48526) (#48637)

* BUG: Fixed repr type error when column in np.record

* Reallocated the test to proposed destination and test the repr of the frame

* Assert has gone missing due to merge conflict

* Added new function that handles np.recarrays in _isna_array

* Addes 2 more tests + refined _isna_recarray_dtype + formatting fixed

* Reworked isna_recarray_dtype method + Added test for inf value

* Pre-commit fix

* Fixing typing

* Fixed formatting

* Fixed pyright error
