Support for numpy >= 2.0.2

[envelio-cb]

I am working on upgrading our ecosystem to use numpy >= 2.0.2 which currently breaks at your package.

Afaik you don't use numpy in your code except for testing. Thus, I am wondering if you can either drop the dependency and add it as dev-only dependency or if you can be less strict in the versioning of numpy and support numpy >= 2.0.2.

Here is also a list of the numpy ecosystem compatibility with numpy 2.0:
numpy/numpy#26191

Kind regards

+1 to this! Also in general to not setting upper bounds to package versions unless strictly necessary.

I made a similar comment about this here #427 (similar case that's affecting us but for the pyarrow < 17.0 limitation
