Transfer uploading images from GCR to GAR

[blackpiglet]

Describe the problem/challenge you have

The Velero Github action uploads the built image to GCR for PR merging and release cutting. The GCR service will be deprecated with Google Artifact Registry in the future: https://cloud.google.com/container-registry/docs/deprecations/container-registry-deprecation.

The GCR deprecation deadline is May 15, 2024.

Describe the solution you'd like

The Artifact Registry can host the GCR address. https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/transition/transition-from-gcr#transition-options https://cloud.google.com/artifact-registry/docs/transition/setup-gcr-repo#limitations

We can migrate the images from GCR to GAR, and then let the GAR host the origin GCR address instead.

Anything else you would like to add:

Environment:

• Velero version (use velero version):
• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version):
• Kubernetes installer & version:
• Cloud provider or hardware configuration:
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release):

anything broken now?

[blackpiglet]

Not yet. The gcr.io is not deprecated yet. It gives more time to figure out the way to migrate to the gar.io.
