Hey Greg, Daniel,

I just rebased the change with the sources -
https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/9650 for helm files and
https://github.com/apache/airflow/pull/9652 for the dev docker images. I'd
love your review on that.

After discussion with our customer (one of the biggest SaaS companies in
the world) - they would love to use the helm chart but their security team
is unlikely to accept any unofficial binary. So I strongly believe bringing
the sources in and capability of rebuilding the images from "community"
sources is important. I rebased those above PRs and I think it would be
great to merge them!
