The (oddly-placed) document dist/docker/debian/README.md explains how a
developer can build a Scylla docker image using a self-built Scylla
executable.
While the document begins by saying that you can "build your own
Scylla in whatever build mode you prefer, e.g., dev.", the rest of the
instructions don't fit this example mode "dev" - the second command does
"ninja dist-deb" which builds *all* modes, while the third command
forgets to pass the mode at all (and therefore defaults to "release").
The forth command doesn't work at all, and became irrelevant during
a recent rewrite in commit e96ff3d.
This patch modifies the document to fix those problems.
It ends with an example of how to run the resulting docker image
(this is usually the purpose of building a docker image - to run it
and test it). I did this example using podman because I couldn't get
it to work in docker. Later we can hopefully add the corresponding
docker example.
Fixes#9263.

Today our docker image is based on Centos7 ,Since centos will be EOL in
2024 and no longer has stable release stream. let's move our docker image to be based on ubuntu 20.04
Based on the work done in https://github.com/scylladb/scylla/pull/8730,
let's build our docker image based on local packages using buildah
Closes#8849
