Switch the project from 0xacab to github
While the folks running 0xacab are much more lovely than the github ones, this project has outgrown the former: - Github offers beefy continuous integration, make it easier to run the testsuite on every python version, instead of using a weird docker-based contraption. Moreover, I'd rather burn some Microsoft money than 0xacab one. - Opening an account on 0xacab is non-trivial (by design), making it tedious for people to report issues and contribute to mat2. - Gitlab is becoming unbearably slow and convoluted, even compared to Github's awful Copilot/AI push. It's a sad state of affairs, but it's a pragmatic decision. People who don't have a Github account can still report issues and send patches by sending me an email.
