Log Message:
py-astropy: updated to 7.0.1

Version 7.0.1 (2025-02-06)

API Changes

astropy.table

- The use of the keyword ``use_local_files`` for the js viewer in
  ``astropy.table.Table.show_in_browser`` is now deprecated. Starting in Astropy
  7.1 this keyword will be ignored and use of it will issue a warning. The
  default behavior will be to use the remote versions of jQuery and DataTables
  from a CDN.

Bug Fixes

astropy.config
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

- With ``astropy`` v7.0.0 the cache directory cannot be customized with the
  ``XDG_CACHE_HOME`` environment variable.
  Instead, ``XDG_CONFIG_HOME`` erroneously controls both configuration and cache
  directories.
  The correct pre-v7.0.0 behaviour has been restored, but it is possible that
  ``astropy`` v7.0.0 has written cache files to surprising locations.
  Concerned users can use the ``get_cache_dir_path()`` function to check where
  the cache files are written.

  The bug in question does not affect systems where the ``XDG_CACHE_HOME`` and
  ``XDG_CONFIG_HOME`` environment variables are unset.

astropy.coordinates

- Fixed a numerical-precision bug with the calculation of the ``theta``
  component when converting from ``CylindricalRepresentation`` to
  ``PhysicsSphericalRepresentation`` for vectors very close to the Z axis (within
  milliarcseconds).

astropy.io.ascii

- Fixed parsing ASCII table with data that starts with a tilda.

- Find and read ASCII tables even if there is white space before
  ``\begin{tabular}``, ``\tablehead``, and similar markers.

astropy.io.fits

- Fix memory leak in ```BinTableHDU.copy()```

- Fix overflow error with Numpy 2 and VLA columns using P format.

- Fix ``ImageHDU.scale`` with float.

- Fixed ``Table.write(..., format="fits", overwrite=True)`` when \ 
filename is
  provided as ``pathlib.Path``.

astropy.io.votable

- Updated XML writer for ``VOTableFile`` element to include or drop
  ``coordinate_systems`` regardless of version.

astropy.modeling

- Fix fitting of compound models when inputs has more than one dimension, and
  specifically fix fitting of compound models with Polynomial2D components

astropy.table

- Ensure that representations and differentials, like SkyCoord, can be used in
  table join operations, by making use of the fact that they can now be masked.

- Fix a crash in ``Table.show_in_browser`` due to an internal type inconsistency.

- Fix incorrect description of the ``unique`` parameter in ``Table.add_index``'s
  docstring. Add missing Raises section.

astropy.units

- Ensure that ``Unit.to`` allows as ``value`` argument all array types that
  follow the array API standard and define ``__array_namespace__``. Furthermore,
  for backwards compatibility, generally pass through arguments that define a
  ``.dtype``, independent of whether that is a numpy data type.

- The zebi (Zi, 2^70) and yobi (Yi, 2^80) binary prefixes are now supported.

astropy.visualization

- Fix ``CoordinateHelper.ticklabels``. The getter was incorrectly returning
  the helper's ticks rather than the labels.

- The following private classes from ``astropy.visualization.lupton_rgb``, that
  were dropped without deprecation in astropy 7.0.0, were re-introduced following
  a report that they were used downstream. The following classes are now
  considered public:

  - ``Mapping``
  - ``AsinhMapping``
  - ``LinearMapping``
  - ``AsinhZScaleMapping``

Other Changes and Additions

- Update bundled js library datatables to version 2.1.8, which is current at the \ 
time of this PR.
