documentation: Add information on pinning images by digest.

Ian Rees requested to merge ian.rees/gitlab:patch-62 into master

What does this MR do?

In documentation for .gitlab-ci.yml, add an example of pinning images by digest. This is considered best practice in some situations, but AFAICT, is not shown in the Gitlab docs.
