[Tile-serving] [openstreetmap/osm2pgsql] Dockerfile for osm2pgsql (Discussion #1428)

[Yuri Astrakhan]

I think it would be great if dockerfile is maintained by osm2pgqsl community or the shared docker library.  I see several benefits:
* a user on any OS can quickly run any needed osm2pgsql version without dealing with complex build steps or relying on (often dated) packages.
* any casual osm2pgsql contributor can quickly test their changes if they can run same build & test steps as ran by the CI, without the need to set up all build requirements -- as that's a heavy investment especially for casual development
* new releases are published to the docker hub automatically by github actions the moment the release is made
* anyone who wants to build their own custom images can quickly see the steps needed to get code to compile.

Note that this is the same discussion as happened at PostGIS community, and despite some initial resistance, we now have a well maintained variety of postgis images for multiple platforms.
