PR Summary
In support of #2978 , I'm trying here to get rid of conda in the windows test build. According to @cphyc , the original motivation to use conda there was to easily select a python version on windows. I think it is likely not necessary anymore since we moved out of travis to GitHub actions. Let's try this out.
