Request adoptopenjdk container build images be published to alternate hosting site

[AdamBrousseau]

At the moment, the build images [1][2] are published to Docker Hub.
The OpenJ9 Community farm and IBM Semeru Runtimes farm pull these images for our Linux build environments for x64 (amd64), ppc64le and aarch64 (arm64). Docker Hub has recently implemented a pricing change [3] that negatively impacts these pulls. We are requesting Adoptium to consider publishing these to an alternate source. Here are a few alternatives I have found.

• Amazon
• GitHub
• IBM
• Quay
• Red Hat

• Identify suitable off-machine location for storing private build container images #3217
• add test docker image to ghcr for dynamic VM testing #3775 (ghcr.io)
• docker: add action to deploy windows build image #3780 (adoptium.azurecr.io)

This was discussed at the PMC meeting on Dec 4. The plan is to proceed with designing alternate location/locations suitable for build and delivery images.

We shall look at publishing our images to ghcr.io and then mirroring them elsewhere (e.g. azure CR for performance) as desired.

@gdams Following on from the PMC discussion we had earlier this month, what do we need to do to set up a suitable registry associated with the temurin-build repo that can be used for public and private images?
