This release fundamentally changes how the renv caching steps work, by moving away from GH/AWS S3 caches (which require elevated permissions) to docker dependency layer caches published to GitHub's package repository, GHCR.io.

The reasons for doing so are due to recent breaking changes in restricting permissions for pull_request triggered workflows (e.g. in "03 Maintain: Apply Package Cache" and "Bot: Receive Pull Request").
These changes meant that the default GITHUB_TOKEN could no longer be used to access credentials or manage PRs when automatically triggered by certain action triggers.

The new docker layer builds on the base workbench-docker image, and stores the R packages installed by renv during the 03 Apply workflow.
The published dependency image layer can be used both by the workflows for subsequent builds, but also by the community in their own environments so they get a fully reproducible build of the lesson at a given point in time (including all packages).
