Install the image's Ubuntu packages from the normal mirrors (closes #190)

The final image stage now apt-gets ca-certificates, nix-bin and runit from Ubuntu's archive, with no snapshot and no hash check of the package lists. The borrowed CA bundle is dropped: apt fetches the packages over plain HTTP and checks each one against the archive's signed package lists, so the install needs none. The Ubuntu base image stays pinned by digest, and every other pin is kept. README.md, SPEC.md and docs/image.md no longer describe a snapshot. Model: deepseek-v4-pro (implementation), opus-5-5 (rework)

- The image is Ubuntu's newest long-term support release, pinned by digest, and

moves to the next LTS release when that ships. Its packages come from Ubuntu's

snapshot service, the archive as it was at the moment the Dockerfile names,

rather than the live archive, whose packages change with every update. The
|

snapshot is never older than the pinned Ubuntu image, since older packages can
|

need older versions of packages the image holds, and it moves forward with the
|
||||
image's digest. The Dockerfile names the hash of each of the snapshot's
|
||||
`InRelease` files, which cover every package list and so every package, and
|
||||
the build checks them before installing. The live archive's `InRelease` files,
|
||||
which `apt-get update` also fetches and the install does not use, are left out
|

of the check. The hashes are the amd64 archive's, so the image is built for

amd64 only.
