The latest dependabot PR highlighted that CI is not running on osx-arm64 for python2.7. Given that Corrfunc supports python2.7, CI should run
Expected behavior
CI runs
Actual behavior
CI fails on osx-arm64. One failure is for py2.7, while others are for py3.7 and numpy1.16

@lgarrison Maybe it's time to drop python2.7 and adopt a policy to update the minimum versions of required dependencies.
+1 for dropping Python 2.7! I usually target non-EOL Python releases (currently 3.8-3.12) in my projects. I doubt we've made any changes that would directly affect the minimum versions of other dependencies, but if we bump the minimum Python version, we might at least need to bump the minimum NumPy version.
I asked on Twitter - in case someone has a real strong need/justification for python2.7
(Completely biased) Twitter sample of two (so far) suggests that dropping py2.7 is fine
Python2.7 has been dropped from the CI - so this issue is fixed (more accurately, not relevant)
