To build this Dockerfile, you must specify an SSH mount that the builder can
use in the steps with `--mount=type=ssh`.

The following GitHub Action workflow uses the `MrSquaare/ssh-setup-action`
third-party action to bootstrap SSH setup on the GitHub runner. The action
creates a private key defined by the GitHub Action secret `SSH_GITHUB_PPK` and
adds it to the SSH agent socket file at `SSH_AUTH_SOCK`. The SSH mount in the
build step assume `SSH_AUTH_SOCK` by default, so there's no need to specify the
ID or path for the SSH agent socket explicitly.
