Package mg5amcnlo dependencies

[matthewfeickert]

As noted in https://github.com/mg5amcnlo/mg5amcnlo/issues/156 mg5amcnlo vendors lots of software without including their licenses and also has multiple external dependencies.

All of these would need to be packaged on conda-forge to realistically package mg5amcnlo.

FYI, gentoo science has cuttools split of for openloops, mcfm, ... https://github.com/gentoo/sci/blob/master/sci-physics/cuttools/cuttools-1.9.3-r1.ebuild It is a bit of a mess to get unbundle included libraries. Another similar hep packaging project to this is https://github.com/andriish/HEPrpms if you need a reference for some package.
