Publishing to conda-forge

[pieterdavid]

A bit of context: I'd like to add bamboo to conda-forge, since it provides an easy way to get an environment to try it (e.g. a jupyterlab+binder with one of the examples on open data), see also https://gitlab.cern.ch/cp3-cms/bamboo/-/issues/65 - and to have plots it'd be nice to include plotIt :-)

The first attempt at a recipe is here. It builds and tests pass, but there are a few questions to ask / things to do first:

• what's the license of plotit? (we should also add a LICENSE file)
• make a release - i.e. push a tag (I guess we can follow https://semver.org - any preference what to call the current one?), and define a strategy for when to tag new releases
• maybe sort out the tests (I cheated by lowering the threshold from .995 to .99, the differences are in the fonts and the edges of the fit shaded region)
• any updates we may want to do to the documentation at http://cp3-llbb.github.io/plotit/

and anything else I didn't think of

For a preview of the recipe see https://github.com/pieterdavid/staged-recipes/blob/addbamboo/recipes/plotit/meta.yaml (the other files in the directory are less interesting, it builds and the tests pass for me); adding a license and tagging a release (the last commit was on April 20 last year, so I think plotIt can be considered quite stable now) are mandatory, but should also be sufficient.
