SomberNight 08ae0a73b2 build: add separate .dockerignore files

The .dockerignore symlink in the project root dir is only picked up by the android build.
The android build has the project root as its build context for "docker build" --
the other builds have their own subdirectories as build context, e.g. contrib/build-linux/appimage.

Source tarballs

✓ This file should be reproducible, meaning you should be able to generate distributables that match the official releases.

This assumes an Ubuntu (x86_64) host, but it should not be too hard to adapt to another similar system.

We distribute two tarballs, a "normal" one (the default, recommended for users), and a strictly source-only one (for Linux distro packagers). The normal tarball, in addition to including everything from the source-only one, also includes:

compiled (.mo) locale files (in addition to source .po locale files)
compiled (_pb2.py) protobuf files (in addition to source .proto files)
the packages/ folder containing source-only pure-python runtime dependencies

Build steps

Install Docker

See contrib/docker_notes.md.

Build tarball

(set envvar OMIT_UNCLEAN_FILES=1 to build the "source-only" tarball)

$ ./build.sh

If you want reproducibility, try instead e.g.:

$ ELECBUILD_COMMIT=HEAD ELECBUILD_NOCACHE=1 ./build.sh
$ ELECBUILD_COMMIT=HEAD ELECBUILD_NOCACHE=1 OMIT_UNCLEAN_FILES=1 ./build.sh

The generated distributables are in ./dist.
