As originally prompted by the fix recommended in conda/conda#12390 for the CI issue in #423 , this will use Mamba rather than Conda on the CIs, which not only has stable, accurate solves avoiding that issue and other potential similar ones, but also speeds up the Conda=yes jobs (which are currently the slowest) by around ≈2x total, and should also avoid the timeout/hang issues we sometimes see especially on macOS (and occasionally Windows).
