Pin conda version for Docker builds (#164579)

Pin conda version for Docker builds (#164575)

Mitigates #164574
Remove unused CUDA_CHANNEL var - this was used before when we had  pytorch install via conda.

Please note: CUDA 13.0 failures are expected since the CI tries to build against prod and CUDA 13.0 is not available in prod yet.
