            Only relevant for DatetimeIndex:

            - 'infer' will attempt to infer fall dst-transition hours based on
              order
            - bool-ndarray where True signifies a DST time, False designates
              a non-DST time (note that this flag is only applicable for
              ambiguous times)
            - 'NaT' will return NaT where there are ambiguous times

default 'raise'
            A nonexistent time does not exist in a particular timezone
            where clocks moved forward due to DST.

            - 'shift_forward' will shift the nonexistent time forward to the
              closest existing time
            - 'shift_backward' will shift the nonexistent time backward to the
              closest existing time
            - 'NaT' will return NaT where there are nonexistent times
            - timedelta objects will shift nonexistent times by the timedelta
            - 'raise' will raise an NonExistentTimeError if there are
              nonexistent times.
