Dockerfile: add or document an alpine setup

[a-gave]

document an alpine setup to self build smaller imagebuilder containers

[a-gave]

I saw there was a little interest on this: #8

It seems convenient to have also alpine based images to reduce the size of imagebuilders and sdks, eg:

ghcr.io/openwrt/imagebuilder-alpine  ath79-generic-v24.10.1        460321c3b32e  7 weeks ago        1.56 GB
ghcr.io/openwrt/imagebuilder     ath79-generic-v24.10.1   6b78c2158b99   8 weeks ago     2.07GB

and for faster pulls from registries.

Maybe the list of requirements installed by apk could be reviewed
Smoke tests from the ci seem to work correctly.

ping @aparcar who reviewed #8

fix: move docker args and envs after the installation of system requirements.

@ynezz what do you think?

[a-gave]

fix: set default distros when no input from workflow dispatch is provided
fix: run rootfs builds once since they are then based on scratch

Thanks for your work, some minor changes please

[a-gave]

fd93873 adds the missing path to Dockerfile also to the step Push.

I loaded some images based on alpine at https://hub.docker.com/r/agave0/openwrt-imagebuilder
There are still some minor things to clean, like it is missing /builder/tmp and ib is using as fallback /tmp

Please rebase this

Please rebase this

Rebased!
Edit: Imagebuilders are currently broken on snapshot with the following error:

Error loading shared library ld-linux-x86-64.so.2: No such file or directory (needed by /builder/staging_dir/host/lib/libfakeroot.so)
make[2]: *** [Makefile:245: package_reload] Error 127
make[1]: *** [Makefile:194: _call_image] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:385: image] Error 2

SDK work both on snapshot and in 25.12.5, Imagebuilders work with 25.12.5

Restored a working version with the last commit 180a043 introducing workarounds to make fakeroot on IB on alpine able to find the missing library ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
