Improvements to pipeline to aid in releasing new preflight versions

Gerard Hickey requested to merge improve_pipeline into main

What does this MR do?

This MR has a few improvements to the pipeline to aid in releasing new versions of preflight. The improvements consist of:

  • Introduction of the BUILD_VERSION variable that allows one to build the new preflight image prior to release
  • Building of the image does not push the "version" tag unless it is a tagged pipeline (i.e. actual release)
  • Documentation in the README.md that gives the procedure for preparing and producing that actual release
