[Koha-devel] Official Docker image

[Kyle Hall]

I agree that official Docker images are a fantastic idea!

One of the benefits of using Docker images for most of our CI logic is that
it makes moving from one CI system to another quite easy!

I love the idea of having an official 'base' image that we can than add on
top of to create things like a Docker based kohadevbox.
