Research direction

Start by reading the Dockerfile used by the vls signer docker release workflow, especially the copy of target/release, and inspect the workflow entry point that builds the image. Identify unnecessary files in the image build context or copied layers; done means the workflow completes without running out of disk space.

Description

I have seen the vls signer docker release workflow run out of disk space and a quick glance at the Dockerfile shows that it is copying alot of files that don't really make sense (the whole target/release directory for example).

I would be good to try to reduce disk usage.
