Request for RTX 5070 GPU Support and CUDA 12.x Compatibility #399

Hello stereopy team,

Thank you for developing such an excellent spatial transcriptomics analysis tool. I've been trying to set up stereopy with GPU acceleration but encountered compatibility issues with newer hardware.

Environment:

GPU: NVIDIA RTX 5070
CUDA Version: 12.x
Python: 3.8 (as required by stereopy)
Problem:
The current stereopy installation requires RAPIDS, which doesn't have pre-built packages supporting both Python 3.8 and CUDA 12.x simultaneously. This creates a compatibility gap for users with newer RTX 40/50 series GPUs that require CUDA 12.x drivers.

Current Workaround Limitations:

Downgrading to CUDA 11.8 may not be feasible for RTX 5070 users
Building RAPIDS from source is complex and time-intensive for most users
Feature Request:
Would it be possible to consider:

Updating Python version support to 3.9+ to leverage newer RAPIDS builds with CUDA 12.x support
Providing alternative GPU acceleration options that are compatible with newer CUDA versions
Adding installation guidance for users with RTX 40/50 series GPUs
I understand this involves significant development effort, but it would greatly benefit users adopting newer GPU hardware. I'm happy to help test any solutions or provide additional system information if needed.

Thank you for your time and consideration!
