This PR changes the continuous integration service from travis to github actions / workflows. The main benefits are larger allowed resource usage, including a 6 hour run time per job and no need to print things to stdout to keep the job alive like on travis. Also the unit tests on github run faster than on travis.
The units test are also converted to run in pre-built docker containers with all dependencies. These are generated automatically for python 3.5-3.8 whenever a new tag is made of the cmbenv repo:
https://github.com/hpc4cmb/cmbenv/blob/master/.github/workflows/deploy.yml
Hopefully this will streamline the process of updating the testing whenever a dependency is updated.
