Switch from `pip` to `conda` in Travis

See original GitHub issue

Because of https://github.com/openbabel/openbabel/issues/2067, we can no longer use pip to install Open Babel. However, thanks to Felipe’s hard work in https://github.com/cclib/cclib/pull/758, it should be straightforward to make the full switch over.

Personally, I do not like conda at all, one reason being its slowness, especially on Travis (total time for a single build went up to 12 and a half minutes from 7 and a half on 3.7), but we don’t have much choice unless we’d like to build just the Python bindings form scratch, and we’re already using it for Psi4 anyway.

Oh, and this is in order to upgrade from Open Babel 2.4.1 to 3.0.0, which…do we want to?

I think this was done in some combination of #758, #881, #939, though in between #939 and switching to GitHub Actions in #983 we never fully switched.
