Description of Changes

Pinning our apk dependencies brought maintainance nightmares:

  • PRs frequently breaking due to yanked packages
  • Dependabot PRs not able to update base images due to versions being pinned and hence not available in new base images

This patch aims to get more frequent dependabot PRs but with less failures, which will allow us to merge them faster.
