update assert np.allclose to numpy.testing.assert_allclose in tests

[VeckoTheGecko]

• Chose the correct base branch (main for v3 changes, v4-dev for v4 changes)

numpy.testing.assert_allclose has a better Pytest error message.

Docs on numpy.testing.assert_allclose

The test is equivalent to allclose(actual, desired, rtol, atol) (note that allclose has different default values).

This might cause failures in the test suite. Let's wait for CI

[erikvansebille]

Very nice improvement, @VeckoTheGecko! I didn't know that this function existed, but I'm sure it'll make development against unit tests easier!

Also implement this change in the docs/examples/* files?
