   So far, when we built release images in CI or locally we relied on either 
the emulation or having a builder configured that could handle having docker 
engines running at the same time on different hardware.
   
   That had some disadvantages:
   
   * for emulation, it was terribly slow.It was 10/15 times slower than 
building appropriate platform on appropriate hardware - making our image relase 
process taking more than hour. Also build output from both runs was interleaved 
which made it rather difficult to diagnose problems sometimes.
   
   * for using local builder, you needed to setup and authenticate with another 
docker engine, which required SSH connectivity and port forwarding and it was 
really not feasible for GitHub Actions where you cannot easily authenticate 
between separate runners and make sure they are reachable from each other.
   
   This PR implements different appreach - merging build images. Instead of 
building them together, the images are built as ``digest-only`` images and 
pushed to the registry and their metadata with digest is uploaded as artifacts. 
Then a separate merge step downloads the metadata and creates merged manifest 
where both images are referred to.
   
   This allows to build each image separately on a separate hardware - way 
faster in general (providing that we have an appropriate hypervisor capable 
hardware for each platform that we can build the images on.
