Description

Add cve-bin-tool to conda-forge.

Why?

conda-forge is a place where the OSS community can add packages that can be installed via the conda ecoystem. conda-forge, in particular, is a channel that is maintained by the OSS community. I like that this package can be installed by pip, but it would be great if this package could be installed via conda, which is another package manager for Python.

Environment context (optional)

I was trying to install cve-bin-tool via conda using the command conda install -c conda-forge cve-bin-tool. conda told me that the package does not exist on the conda-forge channel

Anything else?

Here's an article from conda-forge about how to contribute a package to conda-forge: https://conda-forge.org/docs/maintainer/adding_pkgs/

This is an intriguing idea but I don't know how many of our dependencies are even in conda so it could be easy or it could be a huge pain and I'm not sure which.

I'm going to tag this as "future" since it's definitely not happening before the 3.4 release, but if anyone wants to do some groundwork and see how feasible this is, please go ahead and do so!
