GitHub Action to set NumPy versions

This actions aims at computing correct values for NumPy dependencies:

• NUMPY_BUILD_VERSION: range of accepted versions at Python binding build time
• NUMPY_DEP_VERSION: range of accepted versions for execution time

Versions are set considering several factors:

• API and ABI compatibility ; otherwise we can have the binding wrapper throwing errors like "Illegal instruction", or computing wrong values because of changed memory layout
• Wheels availability: for CI and end users, we want to avoid having to rebuild numpy so we stick to versions where there is an existing upstream wheel file
