Consider packaging and distribution on conda-forge #82

In addition to publishing distributions on PyPI, it would be very nice to also distribute on conda-forge and as nflows is a pure-Python package that would be technically easy.

However, given the required dependencies

umnn is not yet on conda-forge and would be required to be distributed there first.

Ah, seems that https://github.com/AWehenkel/UMNN is unmaintained research software so getting https://pypi.org/project/UMNN/ on conda-forge might take some additional work. There might be hope though given that there were releases on PyPI as new as a year ago (December, 2023). Ping @AWehenkel in the event they can offer help (also hello again!).
