Conda based build

[kurapov-peter]

We should not expect users to install the base toolkit for torch to work on Intel GPUs. A system-wide installed driver is enough.

There's a known issue with versions 2024.0.2 and 2024.0.1 btw, only 2024.0.0 works for compilation.

What is the issue?

[kurapov-peter]

Not familiar with the details, but it doesn't work - tried it myself.

The reason I am asking about the compilation issue is that I have a successful build in conda environment, but 3 failed (out of 5k+) core tests, so I am trying to understand if we are talking about the same issue.

Oh, I meant I tried sycl compilation. I didn't try triton.

Delayed by #173 and #358, still in progress.

the builds are complete, there is some work to be done fixing the compiler and the tests
