Although very common, bash is not guaranteed to be located at
`/bin/bash`. NixOS is an example of this.
More commonly, `/bin/bash` can be quite out of date. An example of this
is MacOS's version of `bash`. This realistically won't affect Playwright
but it's worth noting. You can technically update MacOS's system version
of bash but you need elevated permissions to do so.
By using `/usr/bin/env bash` instead of `/bin/bash` we can execute
Playwright's bash scripts in like NixOS and generally improve the
selection behaviour for bash in other systems too.
Some discussion of why it's worth favouring `/usr/bin/env bash` over
`/bin/bash`:
- Discusses `/bin/bash` missing in NixOS:
https://discourse.nixos.org/t/add-bin-bash-to-avoid-unnecessary-pain/5673
- Some general commentary on why `/usr/bin/env bash` is favoured:

Improves situation at #5501
This removes everything related to docker integration experiments that
we conducted over the last 6 months.
I'll send a follow-up with an alternative suggestion that was demo'ed on
a team meeting in the end of December.
This patch:
- adds a new `Dockerfile.vrt` image file based on focal that installs
VRT-related dependencies inside it.
- updates scripts to build & publish the new docker image.
Drive-by: remove stale file
This patch prints a friendly instructions in case Docker image version
mismatches Playwright version and there are missing browser
dependencies.
With this patch, Playwright will yield the following error:
```
root@f0774d2b2097:~# node a.mjs
node:internal/process/promises:279
triggerUncaughtException(err, true /* fromPromise */);
^
browserType.launch:
╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ Host system is missing dependencies to run browsers. ║
║ This is most likely due to docker image version not matching Playwright version: ║
║ - Playwright: 1.22.0 ║
║ - Docker: 1.21.0 ║
║ ║
║ Either: ║
║ - (recommended) use docker image "mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.22.0-focal" ║
║ - (alternative 1) run the following command inside docker to install missing dependencies: ║
║ ║
║ npx playwright install-deps ║
║ ║
║ - (alternative 2) use Aptitude inside docker: ║
║ ║
║ apt-get install libgbm1 ║

This patch:
- moves docker publishing to main repo
- extracts all the logic from the GHA YML file to Bash
- starts using the script in both `publish_canary.yml` and
`publish_release.yml`
