Add an API to safely add conda packages

If a package installed via `Conda.add` is not available for installed
Python version, `conda` may downgrade Python:
https://discourse.julialang.org/t/help-understanding-pycall-related-travis-failure/15957

This breaks PyCall because it stores the path to libpython etc.  This
patch provides a workaround to the issue by adding an API that wraps
`Conda.add` and re-build PyCall if Python version is changed during
installation of conda packages.
