Description

Linux CI installs ~100 packages on every build run. Even with apt caching the build is slow.

Suggested fix

Build a pre-baked container image with all build dependencies installed and push it to the Forgejo container registry. The CI workflow would pull this image instead of running apt-get on every run, cutting build times significantly.
