Docker-free Ubuntu (`apt`) package #10779

What is the problem you're trying to solve

Is there a reason other than the work involved that a completely standalone apt package has not been considered that would install everything for containerd including potentially two package dependencies on a runc package and cni-plugins package? (I apologize in advance if this has been asked. I could not find anything.)

Describe the solution you'd like

Packages for containerd, runc, and cni-plugins that are completely docker free.

Usually packaging decisions are handled by the distro. It looks like Ubuntu has a standalone containerd package (https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/containerd) and runc package (https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/runc). Disclaimer: I don't have any Ubuntu packaging experience. 😅 BUT it looks like you can start a thread with the package maintainers to request a cni-plugins package.
