Update Versioneer to replace deprecated SafeConfigParser()

[fcotizelati]

Hello,

I've noticed that versioneer.py uses configparser.SafeConfigParser(), which is no longer available for Python>=3.12.

Perhaps a potential fix could be to use configparser.RawConfigParser() (or configparser.ConfigParser(), depending on the desired behavior) instead?

Thanks for your attention to this matter!

I'll try to find a moment next week, might want to use setuptools-scm instead these days.

@v-morello If you want I can have a look at this. I can couple this with a few other changes, and send in a PR accordingly. I think it would be better to shift to setuptools-scm, as well as switch to a src layout, and bring out the tests into a separate directory outside. If you agree, I can do all of the above changes in a single PR, and send it along for you to review and merge.

@astrogewgaw Ok, go for it. On my side, I'll reinstate the CI pipeline using github actions.

[v-morello]

@astrogewgaw CI pipeline is back! I've not yet added Python 3.12 to the list of tested versions, I'll let you do that.
PS: Please do not include linting / formatting changes in the PR 😄 I'd rather to this separately right after.

@v-morello I have made the PR. I had to make it twice because I missed your commits updating the CI pipeline, which ended up with the first attempt having merge conflicts because I forgot to update my dev branch. But the second PR should be fine I think 😆 . Let me know what you think.

Should be solved by PR #4 , thanks @astrogewgaw for this!
I still need to tag a new version and upload it to PyPI, which I will do sometime this week.

[fcotizelati]

Hi both, many thanks for taking care of solving this issue!
