Additional configuration options when releasing Python packages to a Python package index

[fridex]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

As a user of AICoE-CI, I would like to provide a base container image that should be used during the build process of wheel files so that Python packages are built inside the supplied builder environment (that can have additional libraries required for the build process, e.g. bazel, ...).

As a user of AICoE-CI, I would like to provide an option so that auditwheel repair is run on the built Python wheels to conform desired manylinux standards.

Describe the solution you'd like

Provide required flags and options. It might be good to give it a better design (e.g. say which manylinux standard should be met during the build process for auditwheel repair feature and pick the appropriate manylinux container image automatically under the hood).
