ci: add GitHub Actions workflow + CI badge (closes #1)

- .github/workflows/ci.yml: Python 3.10/3.11/3.12 × GCC matrix
  * pip install numpy pybind11 pytest cmake
  * apt install libeigen3-dev libgomp1
  * avx512f hardware check (required for dlsym SVML bridge)
  * cmake -S tests -B tests/build → build → pytest test_all.py
- README: add CI badge + tests-792-bit-exact badge

+# Bit-exact CI: every push/PR must pass all 792 IEEE-754 tests.
+#
+# Requirements driving the setup:
+#   - numpy must be pip-installed (its bundled OpenBLAS exposes sdot_64_ /
+#     cblas_sgemm64_ / __svml_exp8 etc. that numpycpp resolves via dlsym)
+#   - AVX-512 hardware is required at runtime (-mavx512f compile flag +
+#     __attribute__((target)) guards; GitHub ubuntu-latest uses Intel Xeon
+#     which supports AVX-512)
+#   - pybind11, Eigen3, OpenMP needed to build the test extension module
