Add Alpine tags to go-images #446

Description

@dagood

Right now we have Debian, Mariner, and Windows images. Upstream also has Alpine. However, apparently the linux-amd64 distribution of Go doesn't work there and it has to be recompiled in-place:

https://github.com/docker-library/golang/blob/7db3fb743f7d5d24d75493eacfc0595ce97979da/1.17/alpine3.15/Dockerfile#L54

(I believe the reason is that Alpine uses musl where other distros use glibc.)

It would be nice to not have to do fresh builds inside our Docker repository, so it would be nice to not do this, but if we do, we could add musl builds to our internal rolling build to avoid building Go in go-images.
