Before: the pydaqmx branch (the PyDAQmx based plugins) has the old per-repository publish workflow, no acceptance test, no AGENTS.md, pymodaq>=5.0.0 as the only floor, static classifiers, and a plugin_info.toml left from the old packaging.

After: it follows the plugin template like the 5.3.x branch does (#11, #13, #14):

• tests/test_plugin_package_structure.py (acceptance checks), AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md;
• tests.yml, compatibility.yml and python-publish.yml call the reusable workflows of the template (the sphinx.yml documentation workflow is kept);
• floors of the template: pymodaq>=5.3.7, pymodaq_utils>=5.3.1, pymodaq_gui and pymodaq_data>=5.3.0, requires-python>=3.10 (the floor of PyMoDAQ 5.3.7); pydaqmx stays a runtime dependency;
• the OS and Python classifiers are computed at build time ([tool.pymodaq], pymodaq_utils>=5.3.6 to build);
• plugin_info.toml removed (its content is in pyproject.toml).

How: files copied from the 5.3.x branch of this repository and pyproject.toml edited with the template recipe. Locally on Linux without NI driver: check_plugin reports OK (10 modules checked) and pytest tests gives 2 passed, 8 skipped, because PyDAQmx cannot find the NI library and the modules that cannot be imported are skipped (the acceptance test is not strict about imports). The remaining check_plugin warnings are in the code (see #12) and are not changed here. Nothing tested with NI hardware.

The docs check failed before running anything: GitHub refuses actions/upload-artifact@v3 (deprecated), used by .github/workflows/sphinx.yml, which this PR did not touch, so the pydaqmx branch fails the same way. The 5.3.x branch already uses the current versions: I ported only those version bumps (checkout, setup-python, upload-artifact, gh-pages) to this PR. The documentation build itself is not tested here.
