What/Why/How?
The current structure of the Dockerfile results in a bloated image, because files get cleaned up not in the same layers where they were created (=> they do not disappear from the end image, just get "hidden" by OverlayFS).
By slightly rearranging and merging RUN instructions + removing apk cache, we can reduce the image size from ~523MB to ~248MB.
