This PR contains two large changes. Merging in epics-base 7.0.10. And a refresh of the github actions. I'm combining them because it would be more work to isolate them (aka. laziness). Many of the current GHA jobs are broken. Also, the 7.0.7 source fails to build with recent gcc/clang.

Changes to the GHA recipe would have the effect of only uploading wheels for cpython 3.8+ on Linux amd64, windows amd64, and OSX universal (I think). So no more i686 uploads. There is still a linux 2.7 job to check function, but the result is not uploaded. My idea being to drop py2.7 support after this set of releases. I picked 3.8 because it is currently the oldest available with actions/setup-python, the oldest cpython available in the oldest supported manylinux2014 image, and the oldest supported by cython >= 3.1 .

I prototyped this recipe for the set of packages down to p4p with https://github.com/mdavidsaver/p4p-integration

This enables referring to e.g. {option}`msi -o` in the documentation,
and it will link to the correct location
This allows optionally printing out the value of one or more fields
for each record found.
Certain windows build environments (see
https://dev.azure.com/conda-forge/feedstock-builds/_build/results?buildId=1234387&view=results
for an example) fail unless the echo command is properly quoted. This
seems to be due to how Make handles various commands on non-posix
systems; without the quotes it directly tries to run
```
echo foo bar
```
inside cmd.exe, which fails as echo is not a valid command in that context.

This allows other modules like pvxs to find files there, too.
Also, the install locations of homebrew and MacPorts are now
detected rather than assumed.

If a package is installed in both, the homebrew version is preferred.
Includes some unification of error text, narrower wrap margin.
'var' output now lists the variable types.
The bldEnvData.pl script now syntax-checks the envParam
default values, allowing ANSI color macros to be used
in the IOCSH_PS1 parameter.

Since we use gnu_printf format on mingw, the windows "I" modifier
is no longer recognized by the format checker. Use "ll" instead.
Meanwhile, MSVC understands that as well.
But it also does not know warning -Wformat-security.

This all looks good to me. Only a couple of minor comments. I'm happy with the support provided by this CI.

I think that the problems I am seeing with epics-base/p4p#193 are due to some ABI issue with mixing manylinux1 and manylinux2010, which will stop as these PRs get merged. So I plan to move forward with merging, and pushing pre-releases to pypi.org. So dependent GHA jobs with pip --pre may fail spuriously while I am doing this. As previously, regular releases will only follow once I see a full set of working pre-release builds.

... once I see a full set of working pre-release builds.

I see such a set: epicscorelibs == 7.0.10.99.0.0a1, pvxslibs == 1.4.2a1, p4p == 4.2.2a1. (also setuptools_dso == 2.12.2)

@coretl @AlexanderWells-diamond Please test when you have a chance. Let's see what breaks...
