Try using libmamba solver for conda packaging

It is [officially supported by conda](https://www.anaconda.com/blog/conda-is-fast-now), and it is significantly faster. Before this commit, Windows packaging usually takes 1 hour and 15 minutes. Mac packaging usually takes about 45 minutes. Linux usually takes about 35 minutes. We'll see if there are any noticeable differences. Signed-off-by: Patrick Avery <[email protected]>
