Gym 0.23 is unmaintained and warns on import with NumPy 2, which makes this dependency noisy in modern environments and blocks a clean upgrade path. Keep Habitat's existing reset/step contracts and registered env IDs in place so this change is reviewable as a backend dependency swap first. That keeps baselines, HITL, and GymRegistryEnv users working while a follow-up can migrate the public API to native Gymnasium semantics.

Motivation and Context
Importing Habitat currently pulls in the unmaintained
gymdependency, which emits a warning in modern NumPy environments:python -c 'import habitat'This PR migrates habitat-lab from
gymtogymnasiumso that importing Habitat no longer emits that warning. The change preserves Habitat's current env IDs and reset/step behavior without a broader public API transition to native gymnasium.In short:
