Subject: [PATCH] ci: install conda with setup-miniconda in the Linux conda
 jobs

ubuntu-latest is now Ubuntu 26.04, whose image no longer ships Miniconda,
so $CONDA is unset and every Linux build and test job failed with
'conda: command not found'. Use setup-miniconda, as the Windows and macOS
jobs already do, pass the cached pkgs_dirs through its pkgs-dirs input
(it rewrites ~/.condarc), and take the conda-bld paths from $CONDA.
