Container Images for 2.0

[shaneutt]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Problem Statement

Image builds for 2.x were disabled during the teardown of 1.x temporarily so as to separate them into their own scope.

We need to add the image builds back before the beta release.

Proposed Solution

• add a distroless image build
• configure image builds at the end of the release workflow

Additional information

Internal discussions among maintainers seemed to indicate that alpine and UBI images may be OK to stop building given lack of usage.

Acceptance Criteria

• users have access to a standard KIC 2.0 image (distroless)

What is "standard" and how is it different from "alpine-based"?

For 1.x, the "1.x.y" tag has been merely an alias for "1.x.y-alpine".

It was redundant, description updated 👍

@shaneutt agreed to:

• clarify the scope/AC of this issue and the work already done (distroless build works, no UBI nor alpine builds for KIC 2.0)
• create a follow-up issue that will get us an UBI image for KIC 2.0
