grib2io v2.4.0

Introduction

This is a significant release for grib2io -- notably the refactoring of the g2clib Cython extension module and the introduction of a new Cython extension module, iplib, that provides an interface to the NCEPLIBS-ip Fortran interpolation library. This now means that grib2io-interp is no longer necessary to install as an additional component and its development is no longer active.

These changes also now make grib2io available for Python 3.13 and NumPy 2.x
