Version number adjustments.
however I found that the latest numpy version requires at least Python 3.9.
I adjusted the requirements.txt to limit the version of numpy to V1.23 so that the minimum remains at Python V3.7.
However, we could also change the minimum Python version to Python 3.9, then we can use the latest numpy. But on Ubuntu 22.04 (and probably others as well) the default is Python 3.8 and the build fails unless a newer Python is installed.
The HelloSPTPTest regression test still fails. This is a performance test. However, on my slow machine (Intel i7 gen8) it runs too slow to pass the test. It would be good to have a performance test that flags a PR that destroys performance but the test should not be dependent on the processor's speed. So for now I disabled that test.
I also made some corrections to the README file.
