Description

Differentiate between the build-time and runtime Docker images, and update the toolchain inside the build-time Docker image so that there's no need to install toolchains separately in the GitHub CI steps.

Research direction
Examine the current Dockerfile(s) in the repository (likely under a docker/ or .github/ directory). Identify the toolchain installations in the GitHub CI workflow (likely in .github/workflows/). Propose a separation into a build time image with all toolchain dependencies and a runtime image with only runtime dependencies. Update the CI workflow to use the build time image and remove separate toolchain installation steps.
