Add debug tools to the runtime docker image

[apkar]

Docker image that is being published has a very minimal set of tools. It would be useful to ship some useful debug tools with the image. We should add useful, at the same time not make the image too big. I can think of some tools that could be useful

• less
• netstat
• nc
• traceroute
• lsof
• tcpdump
• gcore

May be useful

• perf
  • I never had success running perf in containers. But, it's super useful on bare metal
• gdb

Let's add ubsan too, so we can build with -DUSE_UBSAN=1 in the docker image

[mpilman]

some more tools I think would be useful:

• ripgrep (a much faster grep)
• jq - very useful to search status json output

@atn34 if I understand correctly, you are asking for ubsan in build image, right? I was mainly talking about FDB runtime docker image.

Yup I was talking about the build Image

@apkar is the idea to always contain these debugging tools in the image or should we release 2 different images e.g. one $FDB-VERSION-debug and the current one?

Sorry for super late response. Idea is to have them all the time in the image. I checked locally, these tools seems to increase the image size by 100MB. I think, with container caching various platforms do, 100MB increase in image size is not too much cost for the benefits we get in return.
