Restrict numpy<2 and bump actions

[tylerjthomas9]

Ref #37

I also went ahead and bumped the actions to prevent issues down the road (since this library is less actively developed).

@ablaom Restricting numpy seemed to fix the issue

[ablaom]

Great work and quick diagnosis! Many thanks.

Is this an issue that should be fixed at PythonCall.jl (it is already tagged here) or is this "expected behaviour" and we just merge your fix (here and in all the other effected packages)?

[tylerjthomas9]

I did not realize that it broke PythonCall.jl. Ideally, it would be fixed there, and we could pin a minimum PythonCall.jl version.

I am struggling to reproduce the numpy issues with just PythonCall.jl. However, I can't import catboost from the created Python environment. Our error is happening when importing catboost in Python. I have tried pip and conda installing catboost, and neither one seems to work.

catboost/catboost#2671

It looks like catboost might restrict numpy to 1.x until the packages are rebuilt for numpy 2.0. I feel like we should just restrict numpy until it is resolved.

Looks good, thank you for the prompt action. 🙏🏾
