Code Review

This pull request updates the AlmaLinux base image version from 9.6 to 9.7. The review feedback suggests removing the --platform=$BUILDPLATFORM flag from the FROM instruction to ensure the image is built for the target architecture rather than the build host's architecture, preventing potential performance issues or mismatches.

[gemini-code-assist]

Using --platform=$BUILDPLATFORM in the FROM instruction of the final (and only) stage forces the image to be built for the architecture of the build host (e.g., the CI runner) rather than the target architecture. This can lead to architecture mismatches or performance issues due to emulation when the image is run on a different platform. Unless this image is specifically intended to be a toolset for the build host, it is recommended to remove this flag to allow the image to match the requested target architecture.
