* Migrate CI to docker buildx and other improvements
## Motivation
- Improve build times in forks. Specially when rerunning builds because of some flaky test.
- Start using `docker buildx` to pave the way for multiplatform builds.
## Performance improvements
These timings were taken for the `kind_integration.yml` workflow when we merged and rerun the lodash bump PR (#4762)
Before these improvements:
- when merging: `24:18`
- when rerunning after merge (docker cache warm): `19:00`
- when running the same changes in a fork (no docker cache): `32:15`
After these improvements:
- when merging: `25:38`
- when rerunning after merge (docker cache warm): `19:25`
- when running the same changes in a fork (docker cache warm): `19:25`
As explained below, non-forks and forks now use the same cache, so the important take is that forks will always start with a warm cache and we'll no longer see long build times like the `32:15` above.
The downside is a slight increase in the build times for non-forks (up to a little more than a minute, depending on the case).
## Build containers in parallel
The `docker_build` job in the `kind_integration.yml`, `cloud_integration.yml` and `release.yml` workflows relied on running `bin/docker-build` which builds all the containers in sequence. Now each container is built in parallel using a matrix strategy.
## New caching strategy
CI now uses `docker buildx` for building the container images, which allows using an external cache source for builds, a location in the filesystem in this case. That location gets cached using actions/cache, using the key `{{ runner.os }}-buildx-${{ matrix.target }}-${{ env.TAG }}` and the restore key `${{ runner.os }}-buildx-${{ matrix.target }}-`.
For example when building the `web` container, its image and all the intermediary layers get cached under the key `Linux-buildx-web-git-abc0123`. When that has been cached in the `main` branch, that cache will be available to all the child branches, including forks. If a new branch in a fork asks for a key like `Linux-buildx-web-git-def456`, the key won't be found during the first CI run, but the system falls back to the key `Linux-buildx-web-git-abc0123` from `main` and so the build will start with a warm cache (more info about how keys are matched in the [actions/cache docs](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/caching-dependencies-to-speed-up-workflows#matching-a-cache-key)).
## Packet host no longer needed
To benefit from the warm caches both in non-forks and forks like just explained, we're required to ditch doing the builds in Packet and now everything runs in the github runners VMs.
As a result there's no longer separate logic for non-forks and forks in the workflow files; `kind_integration.yml` was greatly simplified but `cloud_integration.yml` and `release.yml` got a little bigger in order to use the actions artifacts as a repository for the images built. This bloat will be fixed when support for [composite actions](https://github.com/actions/runner/blob/users/ethanchewy/compositeADR/docs/adrs/0549-composite-run-steps.md) lands in github.
## Local builds
You still are able to run `bin/docker-build` or any of the `docker-build.*` scripts. And to make use of buildx, run those same scripts after having set the env var `DOCKER_BUILDKIT=1`. Using buildx supposes you have installed it, as instructed [here](https://github.com/docker/buildx).
## Other
- A new script `bin/docker-cache-prune` is used to remove unused images from the cache. Without that the cache grows constantly and we can rapidly hit the 5GB limit (when the limit is attained the oldest entries get evicted).
- The `go-deps` dockerfile base image was changed from `golang:1.14.2` (ubuntu based) to `golang-1:14.2-alpine` also to conserve cache space.
# Addressed separately in #4875:
Got rid of the `go-deps` image and instead added something similar on top of all the Dockerfiles dealing with `go`, as a first stage for those Dockerfiles. That continues to serve as a way to pre-populate go's build cache, which speeds up the builds in the subsequent stages. That build should in theory be rebuilt automatically only when `go.mod` or `go.sum` change, and now we don't require running `bin/update-go-deps-shas`. That script was removed along with all the logic elsewhere that used it, including the `go_dependencies` job in the `static_checks.yml` github workflow.
The list of modules preinstalled was moved from `Dockerfile-go-deps` to a new script `bin/install-deps`. I couldn't find a way to generate that list dynamically, so whenever a slow-to-compile dependency is found, we have to make sure it's included in that list.
Although this simplifies the dev workflow, note that the real motivation behind this was a limitation in buildx's `docker-container` driver that forbids us from depending on images that haven't been pushed to a registry, so we have to resort to building the dependencies as a first stage in the Dockerfiles.
Using `/bin/env` increases portability for the shell scripts (and often using `/bin/env` is requested by e.g. Mac users). This would also facilitate testing scripts with different Bash versions via the Bash containers, as they have bash in `/usr/local` and not `/bin`. Using `/bin/env`, there is no need to change the script when testing. (I assume the latter was behind c301ea214b (diff-ecec5e3a811f60bc2739019004fa35b0), which would not happen using `/bin/env`.)

The SC1090 "Can't follow non-constant source" issue is addressed in the way suggested in shellcheck's documentation; the source paths are pointed out in shellcheck comments. By adding the bin dir to the -P shellcheck CLI parameter, we avoid having to state the bin directory in each and every script file.

Handling of whitespace paths was not fully implemented; this patch adds
the missing pieces. Also, only use bash where bash-specific
functionality is used/needed.

Split proxy-init into separate repo
Fixes#2563
The new repo is https://github.com/linkerd/linkerd2-proxy-init, and I
tagged the latest there `v1.0.0`.
Here, I've removed the `/proxy-init` dir and pinned the injected
proxy-init version to `v1.0.0` in the injector code and tests.
`/cni-plugin` depends on proxy-init, so I updated the import paths
there, and could verify CNI is still working (there is some flakiness
but unrelated to this PR).
For consistency, I added a `--init-image-version` flag to `linkerd
inject` along with its corresponding override config annotation.

Using a vanilla Grafana Docker image as part of `conduit install`
avoided maintaining a conduit-specific Grafana Docker image, but made
packaging dashboard json files cumbersome.
Roll our own Grafana Docker image, that includes conduit-specific
dashboard json files. This significantly decreases the `conduit install`
output size, and enables dashboard integration in the docker-compose
environment.

CI builds on master have been failing to publish `cli-bin` images because the
`docker-push` script still refers to the `cli` image, though it was removed in
e7c4a9d4b9.
This change removes references to the `cli` image from all scripts.
The build scripts assume they are executed from the root of this repo.
This prevents running scripts from other locations, for example,
`cd web && ../bin/go-run .`.
Modify the build scripts to work regardless of current directory.

The current proxy Dockerfile configuration does not cache dependencies
well, which can increase build times substantially.
By carefully splitting proxy/Dockerfile into several stages that mock
parts of the project, dependencies may be built and cached in Docker
such that changes to the proxy only require building the conduit-proxy
crate.
Furthermore, proxy/Dockerfile now runs the proxy's tests before
producing an artifact, unless the ` PROXY_SKIP_TESTS` build-arg is set
and not-empty.
The `PROXY_UNOPTIMIZED` build-arg has been added to support quicker,
debug-friendly builds.
DOCKER_FORCE_BUILD, combined with symbolic tags, added complexity and
risk of running unintended versions of the code.
This change removes DOCKER_FORCE_BUILD, and sets all Docker tags
programmatically. The decision to pull or build has been moved up the
stack from _docker.sh to the docker-build-* scripts. Workflows that
want to favor docker pulls (like ci), can do so explicitly via
docker-pull.

We’ve built Conduit from the ground up to be the fastest, lightest,
simplest, and most secure service mesh in the world. It features an
incredibly fast and safe data plane written in Rust, a simple yet
powerful control plane written in Go, and a design that’s focused on
performance, security, and usability. Most importantly, Conduit
incorporates the many lessons we’ve learned from over 18 months of
production service mesh experience with Linkerd.
This repository contains a few tightly-related components:
- `proxy` -- an HTTP/2 proxy written in Rust;
- `controller` -- a control plane written in Go with gRPC;
- `web` -- a UI written in React, served by Go.
