[FEATURE] Build on top of Alpine Linux

[comio]

Dear @Rednoah,

Can you evaluate the possibility to use Alpine Linux (that is still using OpenJDK 8) to produce Docker images?
I already using a lot of images based on Alpine Linux and it will be great to share the same layers.

(Of course, I can use the portable version and install it on a self made docker image)

(I switched to universal license, fair price and easy installation, thanks!)

I'll look into it. But Alpine does make things more difficult compared to a normal Debian based image, and ~100 MB storage savings doesn't seem worth the trouble.
