Add OCI standard image labels

[karthikvetrivel]

This PR adds well-known OCI Image labels to the gpu-driver-container image metadata.

Before

$ docker inspect --format='{{json .Config.Labels}}' nvcr.io/nvidia/driver:580.95.05-ubuntu24.04 | jq
{
  "org.opencontainers.image.ref.name": "ubuntu",
  "org.opencontainers.image.version": "24.04"
}

After — ubuntu24.04 image built from this branch

$ docker inspect --format='{{json .Config.Labels}}' nvidia/driver:580.178.04-ubuntu24.04 | jq

@karthikvetrivel can we update the PR description. We can get this merged today and add to next release.

Image version has kernel version (in case of precompiled) and OS appended to it. Example: nvcr.io/nvidia/driver:595-6.8.0-1060-aws-ubuntu24.04 (precompiled), nvcr.io/nvidia/driver:580.173.02-rhel10 (non-precompiled).

[karthikvetrivel]

Updated org.opencontainers.image.version to match the published tag format in all Dockerfiles:

• non-precompiled: ${DRIVER_VERSION}-<dist>
• precompiled ubuntu: ${DRIVER_BRANCH}-${KERNEL_VERSION}-<dist>
• precompiled rhel9/10: ${DRIVER_VERSION}-${KERNEL_VERSION}-${OS_TAG} (rhel8 has no OS_TAG arg, so ${DRIVER_VERSION}-${KERNEL_VERSION}-rhel8)
• vgpu-manager: ${DRIVER_VERSION}-<dist>

Note: rocky builds reuse the rhel Dockerfiles, so those side-builds will carry the rhel dist suffix (same caveat as image.base.name).

Note: rocky builds reuse the rhel Dockerfiles, so those side-builds will carry the rhel dist suffix (same caveat as image.base.name)

Is there an env variable accessible inside the Dockerfile that gives rocky info during builds? The actual images do have -rocky* suffix, so rhel suffix is not fully accurate. Not a blocker though.

[karthikvetrivel]

So this information is in the Makefile but doesn't get passed to the build. However, I made another change to pass DIST as a build arg and declare ARG DIST=<distro-default> in each Dockerfile.

Now, rocky builds should have the rocky suffix.

[rajathagasthya]

Should rhel8 be replaced by OS_TAG here?

[karthikvetrivel]

Updated.
