CI: test against Kokkos develop
The idea of having a CI entry that runs ~nightly with Kokkos develop branch was brought up by Damiean in a recent meeting--I think the Kokkos team is interested in having us make sure that the cross-project testing catches any major issues before releases go out.
I think this seems like an "ok" idea--main challenge for me would be to get pykokkos-base to use the correct Kokkos checkout--perhaps it is as simple as getting a submodule checked out at the correct hash, but maybe there's a bit more to it than that?

There is a cmake option for using an externally installed Kokkos when building pykokkos-base. This is basically trivial and the pykokkos-base CI already does this exact thing (build against the develop branch)
The PR to add nightly testing was merged, but I don't think it is running yet: https://github.com/kokkos/pykokkos/actions
