1. Use Debian instead of Alpine in container image …

   This commit changes the base image for the build and controller
   container images to Debian slim.
   
   Reason for this is that it has proven to be hard to produce working
   executables for AMD64, ARM64 and ARMv7 at all times using Alpine,
   due to them being dynamically linked and compiled using CGO, and
   Alpine having constraints like musl that create an extra barrier,
   especially in combination with our exotic set of dependency
   constraints.
   
   There are a number of trade-offs we have to live with by doing this,
   not limited to:
   
   * An increased build time, the full release pipeline used to take 25-35
     minutes, based on the images we have build for testing purposes this
     seems to have become 35-40 minutes.
   * An increased image size of roughly two times the (compressed) size of
     the Alpine based image.
