Description

Currently the official Solr docker images are built via the docker-solr repository.

Starting with 9.0, Solr will be maintaining its own official docker image. Therefore we also need release steps for this. There are a few things that need to be done for this:

• Decide how a release image should be built.
• Decide how we will support Solr being an Official Docker Image
• Make sure that compatibility between local images and official release images is maintained and verified
• Add docker image release instructions to the release wizard
