CalibratedClassifierCV fails silently with large confidence scores

https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/blob/7f9bad99d6e0a3e8ddf92a7e5561245224dab102/sklearn/calibration.py#L892

With default `method='sigmoid'`, `CalibratedClassifierCV` may fail silently, giving an AUC score of 0.5, apparently when the classifier outputs large confidence scores. This happens in particular with `SGDClassifier`. You may question the quality of `SGDClassifier`; that's a separate question. But if you change `method` to `isotonic`, then AUC is correct, showing that despite suspiciously large confidence scores, `SGDClassifier` does rank the samples correctly. Code to reproduce:
```python
import numpy as np
from sklearn.calibration import CalibratedClassifierCV
from sklearn.linear_model import SGDClassifier
from sklearn.model_selection import cross_val_score
# Setting up a trivially easy classification problem
r = 0.67
N = 1000
y_train = np.array([1]*int(N*r)+[0]*(N-int(N*r)))
X_train = 1e5*y_train.reshape((-1,1)) + np.random.default_rng(42).normal(size=N)
model = CalibratedClassifierCV(SGDClassifier(loss='squared_hinge',random_state=42))
print('Logistic calibration: ', cross_val_score(model,X_train,y_train,scoring='roc_auc').mean())
model = CalibratedClassifierCV(SGDClassifier(loss='squared_hinge',random_state=42),method='isotonic')
print('Isotonic calibration: ', cross_val_score(model,X_train,y_train,scoring='roc_auc').mean())
```
Expected output:
```text
Logistic calibration:  0.5
Isotonic calibration:  1.0
```
The logistic calibration code appears to fail silently at this line https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/blob/7f9bad99d6e0a3e8ddf92a7e5561245224dab102/sklearn/calibration.py#L892)
Because `disp=False`, the caller does not know that `fmin_bfgs` has failed. If you turn on the warning, then you can see that it fails without one iteration, so that logistic calibration outputs constant probability.

Perhaps a more robust solution is to replace `fmin_bfgs` by a derivative-free minimization algorithm such as `scipy.optimize.minimize` with `method='Nelder-Mead'`.

COMMENT:
Another thing we could do: standard scale (or min-max scale) the `predictions` variable and then convert back the tuned Platt scaling parameters to the original scale and offset.

I checked your code snippets and the minimum and maximum values in the `predictions` array are respectively: -3591.4788018972804 and 10542694.703328613...
