Conda Style Guide

In an effort to decrease the context switching/learning barrier between the different projects within the Conda org, a standard set of code styles is defined. The intention of these guidelines is not to overburden or complicate the contribution process; if any style starts to become a burden, its inherent benefit should be reevaluated.
