CI: update which releases to test against

[andresailer]

BEGINRELEASENOTES

• CI: change which LCG_releases/ROOT versions DD4hep is tested.
• Fix various issues with latest version of ROOT (6-32-patches, master) and cppyy in ROOT.
  • ⚠️ : You may encounter issues with python setup complaining about mismatched types, strings, conversions

ENDRELEASENOTES

Different errors encountered for better searching and finding in the future:
Mostly related to the change discussed here root-project/root#15153

350: TypeError: float() argument must be a string or a number, not 'string'
350: corrupted size vs. prev_size in fastbins

Solution: In this case don't use properties obtained from the userHandler object, other cases might mean decoding the cppyy.gbl.std.string` or similar

I managed to create a standalone reproducer for the problem and raised the issue in the ROOT project.

I suspect the issue with clang16 is caused by how the compiler is created, and since it only affects tests where aclic is used, I propose to ignore these tests for the clang16 stack.

PS: adding setup-wrapper probably solves the issue... see next commit.
PPS: setup-wrapper was added to the dev3 setup.
