Description
Complete overhaul of the conda lock file generation: now we are using mamba and Mambaforge, and all stuff is getting installed, and env created with mamba. Day/night improvement in performance - lock file gets generated in less than 2 minutes, pip installs in seconds etc. GA run fails correctly at the auto PR step - but before that it does what's written on the tin, and does it fast and nice 😁
