Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ci: remove unnecessary conda env and Azure auth from
 Style job
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The Style job was using AzureCLI@2 for sbt scalastyle (which doesn't
need Azure auth — Secrets.scala values are all lazy) and installing
the full conda environment (R, torch, horovod, langchain, etc.) just
to run black.

Replace with direct sbt invocation and pip install of black[jupyter].
Validated in a clean container: both scalastyle and black produce
identical results without conda or Azure auth.

History: Python style was originally added via pip install (PR #1520,
Jun 2022). The conda template was added later during a refactor,
not for any functional reason.
