Feature Request because of the issue(difficult to add a custom Python version, and packages)

[MalteBoehm]

Hey there currently i´m building a docker julia template i want to share with everyone. https://github.com/MalteBoehm/julia_docker-compose_template

The current issue is that when i install my own python environment, PyCall adds a HOMEPYTHON Env variable which causes a Fatal Python error and its not possible to unset those variables.

See here: https://github.com/MalteBoehm/julia_docker-compose_template/blob/main/Dockerfile

My suggestion is to add parameters to PyCall from the very beginning, like Python Version and if should install packages via

environment.yml -> conda env create environment.yml conda activate yourEnviroment

This is the Error i get: `Fatal Python error: init_fs_encoding: failed to get the Python codec of the filesystem encoding

Python runtime state: core initialized

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings'
