looks good. I just have one question for future updates: how do I get the sha256 key for the opencv link? |

I download the binary to my local machine and run Edit: give me 10 minutes and I will rebase this on top of latest main. |
Put the package installation in the internal_base image. This will enable building OpenCV in a build container, which in the long run will enable us to make the image smaller.
Build OpenCV in a separate build container and copy the built files into the final container. This means we can just build and install without having to worry about cleaning up the build files. This also creates a separate layer for OpenCV, so that will hit the Docker cache more frequently. Also switch to using Ninja while changing things. Ninja is similar to make, but is slightly faster and will use all cores automatically.
This will prevent the container to build if someone manages to replace the OpenCV source archive. As a side effect, this will also cache the archive in the Docker cache.

Put the build of OpenCV in a build container. It doesn't look very clear from the GitHub diffview, but there are basically 3 separate changes in this PR:
ADDinstruction for downloading the OpenCV source archive. This makes it easy to perform checksum validation to protect against supply-chain attacks, and as a side benefit it also makes the source archive reside in the Docker cache which speeds up local builds.Besides the security and build time improvements, this is a step on the way towards being able to reduce the size of the image.
