Add docker images thorugh github action #99

This PR adds CI to build docker images with mspdebug for multiplatform. I have tested it on arm and it worked. I think it could be an easy way to test mspdebug for people.

You can test it under name sylwekrapala/mspdebug:docer-image If you are interested in this there are some changes we need to do:

[ ] create scerests DOCKERHUB_USERNAME and DOCKERHUB_TOKEN
[ ] rename images

Thank you for sending this, but as far as I know mspdebug is already packaged on most Linux distributions. I'm not sure I see what this adds, if the purpose is to avoid having to compile?

xoac commented 3 years ago

Docker images are used popularly in CI system, especially if tested against hardware. I didn't know mspdebug is packed on most Linux distributions. This makes this PR pointless.

mspdebug is also in the testing repository on Alpine Linux edge image.

apk add mspdebug --update-cache --repository http://dl-3.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing/ --allow-untrusted
