[WE6.2.1] Publish pre-train single version containers

Tracked in Phabricator
Task T369115

If we publish a versioned build of MediaWiki, extensions, skins, and Wikimedia configuration at least once per day we will uncover new constraints and establish a baseline of wallclock time needed to perform a build.

Progress update

• Stage: Engineering/Development
• Dan has implemented the Docker runtime environment for running mwscript and php in scap that was mentioned in last week's status report. This new execution path will allow scap to produce OCI images with fewer runtime dependencies on the executing host.
• A new scap release is being prepared to bring this lower dependency functionality to the releases-jenkins server.
