What is the new behavior?
Please describe the new behavior or provide screenshots.
Use the alpine image, a lighter base image to build the MQTTX CLI Docker, and be able to reduce the size by 600MB.
In the future we could consider putting the pkg compiled binary package into an alpine image that does not contain the nodejs runtime.
The image would then be only 60MB in size.
The reason for not implementing this now is that it requires a more complex build step
