This is really neat! That makes the builds way faster and less prone to issues with installing all the mono packages across so many versions. |

Motivation
The CI builds still take quite a long time to finish, since installing Mono takes around 10 minutes.
@techman83 had the excellent idea of running the builds in Docker containers from the images published here.
Downloading the images should be way faster than installing and pre-compiling it.
Changes

Let's see if it works.
Also realized that I messed up the Discord notifications in #3089 since the env var is named differently.
