Breaking Change: .NET Docker Repo Name Change

.NET Docker Repo Name Change

Coinciding with the release of .NET 5.0, all Docker tags for .NET Core 2.1/3.1 and .NET 5.0 will be published to one set of unified Docker repositories. The names of these repositories have been changed from the originals to no longer include "core" in the name. For backwards compatibility, the original repositories will continue to be maintained for the supported lifetime of the tags contained within those repositories.

Details

This repository name change is being done in order to better align with the .NET 5.0 branding. But it does apply to .NET Core 2.1 and 3.1 as well in order to allow for a consistently named set of repositories to be used across all versions when migrating to .NET 5.0.

Description	Original Repo	New Repo
.NET Family	dotnet/core	dotnet
SDK	dotnet/core/sdk	dotnet/sdk
ASP.NET Core Runtime	dotnet/core/aspnet	dotnet/aspnet
Runtime	dotnet/core/runtime	dotnet/runtime
Runtime Dependencies	dotnet/core/runtime-deps	dotnet/runtime-deps
Samples	dotnet/core/samples	dotnet/samples
SDK (Preview)	dotnet/core-nightly/sdk	dotnet/nightly/sdk
ASP.NET Core Runtime (Preview)	dotnet/core-nightly/aspnet	dotnet/nightly/aspnet
Runtime (Preview)	dotnet/core-nightly/runtime	dotnet/nightly/runtime
Runtime Dependencies (Preview)	dotnet/core-nightly/runtime-deps	dotnet/nightly/runtime-deps

In all of the new repositories, the latest tag refers to .NET 5.0 while the original repositories will still continue to have the latest tags refer to .NET Core 3.1.
