Bump GitHub Actions versions

Update workflow and action references to newer GitHub Action releases for compatibility and maintenance. Changed actions/checkout from v4 -> v6, actions/setup-python from v5 -> v6, and actions/upload-artifact from v4 -> v7 across the repository. Modified files: .github/actions/build_wheel_and_sdist/action.yml, .github/actions/test/action.yml, .github/workflows/deploy.yml, .github/workflows/run_checks_build_and_test.yml, and .github/workflows/speed_test.yml. Also adjusted related comments in the action ymls.
