- introduce variables to avoid publishing latest docker tags and installers
- Refactor .goreleaser.yaml to simplify docker configurations and add environment-driven flags
- removed management debug containers (it was doing only log var)
- Stopped building arm v6 32bits in favor of v7 32 bits for services (not client)
- Add target argument to docker files
