cuda-python 12.8.0 & 11.8.6

Description

Issue body actions

• We support CUDA minor version compatibility
• For the current cuda-python packages (future cuda.bindings [EPIC] RFC: cuda namespace cleanup #75):
  • We cover bindings for the latest two CUDA major versions. The way we do this is to maintain 2 branches: main for the latest major cuda-N and the last major cuda-<N-1>, and we backport bug fixes that are merged into main to the last major branch as well.
  • For versioning, we follow the same CTK major.minor version, but use the patch version for Python only changes. Reasoning being that no API addition/removal is expected in CTK patch releases.
  • For a diagrammatic representation please see RFC: Turn cuda-python into a metapackage #105
• We follow CPython's EOL schedule (important: not SPEC 0 or NEP 29!)
• ... anything else?
