Reduce Image sizes about docker-ansible HOT 4 OPEN

with #43 the Oracle image is now down to 400MB

REPOSITORY                                    TAG         IMAGE ID      CREATED        SIZE
ghcr.io/dev-sec/docker-oracle7-ansible        latest      130638d1981c  6 minutes ago  400 MB

we need to give it some commands to asses what contents of the containers are actually needed

I have not looked to deep into it just yet, but I was actually just hoping that it would work "out-of-the-box". The xray command could also be very helpful in reverse engineering what's going to get removed.

I will give it a shot and test it out properly with one image in the next couple of days, also referencing the newly build in one of the automation jobs to see if this would work without major effort.

Maybe giving slim a shot could be worth.

REPOSITORY                 TAG               IMAGE ID       CREATED          SIZE
debian-12.slim             latest            6e9b12ae9d90   11 minutes ago   46.8MB
debian-12                  latest            42ad1dc660ef   21 minutes ago   974MB

I've not verified the full functionality of the "slimmed" image just yet, but I'd be eager to try it out in the next couple of days.

There is also some documentation for a Github Actions Integration. What do you think?

The tool looks very promising. From the documentation I understand that we need to give it some commands to asses what contents of the containers are actually needed. This might be a problem, since we are using the containers to test all our Automation code and thus we would need to run ALL automation code to generate the Images, or am I wrong?
