With alpine 3.13, the updated kernel headers break SCTP support when the images are running on a host with < 5.5 kernel versions. However the updates in alpine 3.13 have positive impact on memory management and performance. To keep SCTP working and benefit from the improvements on alpine 3.13, this commit adds alpine-lts images that use 5.4 kernel headers for building erlang OTP version 23 and 24.

I know this issue, but why choose alpine:3.13 as the LTS version, I am not sure why choose this version as the LTS version. |

With alpine 3.13, the updated kernel headers break SCTP support when the image runs on a host with < 5.5 kernel versions.
To keep SCTP working and benefit from the improvements on alpine 3.13 (e.g. the new musl library), this PR adds alpine-lts image variants using 5.4 kernel headers for building OTP 23 and 24.
This is only useful/necessary until the commonly used LTS distributions on container hosts catch up to kernel version 5.5 or above and for deployments using SCTP.
Would you consider this change to address issue #332 ?
