Rebuilder for Arch Linux images

Hello everyone,

As a follow-up to our work on achieving bit-by-bit reproducibility for 
some Arch Linux images [1][2], I have set up a rebuilder for them, 
accessible at https://archimgrepro.antiz.fr

This page shows the results of verification builds for the official 
Docker and WSL Arch Linux images. Additional images may be added in the 
future as progress continues.
Rebuilds are currently triggered weekly (on Wednesday mornings) against 
the latest available images. Source code is available on Arch GitLab [3].

It's very simple in its current state, though the setup should be pretty 
straightforward and distro agnostic.

Note that this rebuilder is not (yet) an official Arch Linux service. It 
is currently hosted on my own VPS and domain. We will evaluate if and 
how it might be integrated into the official Arch Linux infrastructure.

Happy to share this, hopefully it’s useful to some! :)
