Steps

• Removing pinned packages tying datajoint to older Python versions (as will be done in Bumped minimum version to 3.8 #1163)
  • Currently Python 3.12 is not supported due to a pinned package in datajoint-python's setup.py that causes datajoint elements to use an older version of scikit-image which is incompatible with Py3.12 (version 0.19.3 is used instead of 0.24.0).
• Update Docker for Python 3.12 - Will not implement, in favor of new Docker image in Remove old tests #1185 instead of using djtest/djbase images
  • Merge Add python 3.12 miniconda3-docker#50
  • Merge Add python 3.12 djbase-docker#36
• Updating GHA for Python 3.12
  • Implemented on Remove old tests #1185
