OverflowError with rdann on LUED annotations w/numpy 2.2

[justinrporter]

Another area of incompatibility with numpy 2.2 I fear...

If I try

wfdb.rdann('physionet.org/files/ludb/1.0.0/1', extension='atr_ii')

or (for version 1.0.1)

wfdb.rdann('physionet.org/files/ludb/1.0.1/1', extension='ii')

I get:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

OverflowError: Python integer 256 out of bounds for uint8

Using the command line rdann works fine, and it works after downgrading numpy 1.26. Seems likely related to #493 ?

Pertinent versions:
wfdb-python == 4.1.2
numpy == 2.2.1 (broken)
numpy == 1.26.4 (works)
python == 3.12
