Distribute through conda-forge

[diegoferigo]

This issue tracks the progress of distributing ScenarIO and gym-ignition through conda-forge. Previous experiments done in #279.

• Bump version to v6.0.0 conda-forge/libignition-gazebo-feedstock#25
• Release Fortress gazebo-tooling/release-tools#459
• Add cmake-build-extension package conda-forge/staged-recipes#16572
• Add gym-ignition-models package conda-forge/staged-recipes#16573
• Add new python CMake component robotology/idyntree#922
• Install Python metadata through pip conda-forge/idyntree-feedstock#8
• Support conda packaging #406
• [devel]→[master] Preparation of v1.3.2 #419
• Add packages: libscenario scenariopy scenario gym-ignition conda-forge/staged-recipes#16582
• TODO: open PR for gazebo-scenario-plugins

The project can then be installed as follows, without the need to install manually Ignition in the system:

mamba create -n gym_ignition_env "python==3.8.*" mamba
conda activate gym_ignition_env

# Install gym-ignition...
mamba install gym-ignition

# ... or only the ScenarIO Python bindings...
mamba install scenariopy

# ... or only the ScenarIO C++ library.
mamba install libscenario
