Running an MW env installation we can see that the step that installs node takes a significant amount of time (around 1 minute on my local machine).
Moving this installation to the base image that the init container uses, should make our installs much faster. I could verify this locally:

The image publishing didn't work. By using an image that's not in docker-registry.wikimedia.org it triggered a bug in the buildkitd version we are using: T386947
None of the node18 images available in the official registry is usable by us (they are based off bookworm and we need buster). So in the end probably we'll have to resort to creating an image with docker-pkg ala https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/repos/releng/dev-images/-/tree/main
