Support deactivate from conda about reticulate HOT 2 OPEN

Reticulate does not have support for finalizing a Python session, and then deactivating and detaching from the Python installation. Updating the PATH is just one part of a sequence of actions that reticulate takes when it binds to a Python binary.

In theory we could add support for finalizing and detaching, but it's not something implemented today. The implementation complexity for this feature would be non-trivial, and the alternative approach is simple and works well: restart the R session.

Hi!, mm, yeah, there seems to be some steps I didn't thought.

I think is getting pretty complex because there is a mix of conda and python, which are not necessary related. Is true we can handle a particular python version or venvs of python, but conda is not for that specifically, is to work with more apps/bins and similar, due to how you are speaking, seems reticulate has mixed both functions.

Sadly, this feature is very important for some functions, which can not be done restarting R.
With conda we can create an env (not python env), do some work, create a new env, do again other stuff, but when we finish, we need to go back to the system env, or when we use reticulate, we will not able to use again easily the system apps that also exists on conda base.
