1. fix: move to scratch docker image …

   This updates several components in order to switch to scratch images. The move to scratch is to reduce
   additional OS dependencies and also added ldflags to remove golang debug symbols.
   
   This resulted in a reduction from 96.6MB to 54.9MB for the release image
   
   This also removes all other files except for the operator itself and the ca-certificates
   This is the new image structure
   
   ```
                                      ├── etc
   drwxr-xr-x         0:0     214 kB  │   └── ssl
   drwxr-xr-x         0:0     214 kB  │       └── certs
   -rw-r--r--         0:0     214 kB  │           └── ca-certificates.crt
   -rwxr-xr-x         0:0      55 MB  └── postgres-operator
   ```
   
   Switched off of golang-alpine image because of issues with alpine images as well as the alpine golang image
   being experimental. https://hub.docker.com/_/golang declares "This variant is highly experimental, and not officially supported by the Go project"
   There are several issues with alpine due to musl as well
   - [Why I Will Never Use Alpine Linux Ever Again](https://martinheinz.dev/blog/92)
   - [Docker/Alpine - Why you should avoid alpine linux](https://dev.to/kakisoft/dockeralpine-why-you-should-avoid-alpine-linux-44he)
   are some examples. golang:$ver is the supported version
   
   This required some additional changes to fix the e2e tests, mainly replacing the kubectl exec for curl and wget and replacing it with port-forward
   and using python requests instead. This method does not require curl or wget to be included in the operator image.
   
   - removed docker/build_operator.sh which was no longer used after https://github.com/zalando/postgres-operator/pull/2665/files
   - since both the image and the k8s manifests reference the user id of 1000:1000, there is no need to pre-create the user or to even have a passwd file
   in the image, if the user was set to `pgo:pgo` then this would require the passwd file to be able to map the name to an id.
   - update kubectl version to match the kind version used for testing
   - updated e2e tests to automatically build image if it doesn't exist during pipeline tests
   
   Ran e2e tests to numerous times to confirm all the changes worked.
