add julia-downgrade-compat-action to github CI (#33)

* add julia-downgrade-compat-action to github CI
* skip downgrading Statistics standard library
* increase required FillArrays version to 1 because lowest version specified by Distributions.jl is not available.
* increase Distribution minimal version to 0.25.102 requirement so that FillArrays 1 can be used
* increase StatsFuns version to 0.9.15 to match Distributions minimal requirements
* increase StatsAPI version to 1.6 to match Distributions minimal requirements
