Conda env can't be specified by directory

We rarely build new conda envs in either the default conda install location, or ~/.conda these days, but rather specify locations with conda create -p PATH/TO/ENV. However P.run(statement, job_condaenv=env) expects env to be a name, rather than a path, and looks up the path using conda env list, which isn't much use for us.

I don't know what the solution might be?
Perhaps if we fail to find the named env, we should check if a driectory exists at the specified location and use that? There would be no way to check if it were a valid env though I don't think.

Yeh I think that would probably be the best approach.

We look for the path to the Conda env with this function anyway:

cgat-core/cgatcore/pipeline/execution.py

Line 179 in ae6e964

def get_conda_environment_directory(env_name):

So we would check if its a path look to see if it exists and return it if it does. Would that work?
