Changes proposed

  1. Native ARM runners - Instead of using AMD runner + QEMU emulator for ARM, we now build AMD on ubuntu-latest and ARM on ubuntu-24.04-arm natively.
  2. GHA caching with mode=max - The old type=inline cache only stored final image layers. The new type=gha,mode=max caches ALL layers including intermediate stages, shared across jobs.
  3. New create_manifests job - Since we now build each arch separately, a new job combines them into multi-arch manifests (same end result as before).

You can look at this action run to see how it works now, and how it went from 30 minutes to ~8.5

Fix manifest creation: use buildx imagetools instead of docker manifest
68bd881 
docker manifest create doesn't accept manifest lists as input,
but buildx imagetools create handles them correctly.
