Dockerfile in root directory should either actually build lalsuite or should be moved (or both)

If a Dockerfile exists in the root directory of the repo, I believe that it should actually build lalsuite. Presently it relies upon GitLab CI to have copied a bunch of files into /opt/lalsuite.

My thinking:

  1. Move Dockerfile to the docker directory as it presently exists and change the docker build command to point to docker.
  2. Create a Dockerfile that performs the build. This would be appropriate for users on their personal workstation and therefore we wouldn't put the same level of effort toward optimizing the build time through parallel stages.

Do you agree with that approach @adam-mercer?
