* ci(pnpr): publish a Docker image on release

Add a `docker` job to the pnpr release workflow that builds and pushes a
multi-arch (linux/amd64, linux/arm64) image to ghcr.io/pnpm/pnpr after the
npm packages are published.

The image is built from the static musl binaries the release job already
produces, so no Rust toolchain runs in the Docker build and the image
matches exactly what ships to npm. It is based on debian:stable-slim with
ca-certificates (pnpr reaches upstream registries over HTTPS via rustls'
platform cert verifier), runs as a non-root user, declares storage and
cache volumes, exposes 7677, and defaults to binding 0.0.0.0 so the server
is reachable from outside the container. The build self-checks that
`pnpr --version` matches the PNPR_VERSION build-arg.

Stable releases also move the mutable `latest` tag; prereleases (versions
containing a hyphen) only get the exact-version tag.

* ci(pnpr): drop unused id-token permission from docker job

The docker job uses only docker/build-push-action's built-in provenance
and SBOM attestations, which are pushed to GHCR via GITHUB_TOKEN. It does
not call actions/attest-build-provenance, so the OIDC id-token: write
permission was unused. Drop it to follow least privilege.

* ci(pnpr): verify staged binary checksum in the docker image build

The build job now pins each binary's SHA256 at build time and uploads it
with the artifact. The docker job verifies the staged binaries against
those checksums and passes them as build-args, and the Dockerfile
re-verifies the binary it copies before trusting it. A 'pnpr --version'
check only confirms reported metadata, so it cannot stand in for an
integrity check on the binary itself. Mirrors the existing pnpm image.

* ci(pnpr): extract release artifacts into an isolated directory

Extract the downloaded musl tarballs into a throwaway directory and move
only the expected, checksum-verified regular files into the Docker build
context. A malformed archive (path traversal or symlink entries) can no
longer escape into the workspace and overwrite the Dockerfile or staged
binaries before the image is pushed to GHCR.

* docs(pnpr): add a language to the docker README code fence

The image-name fenced block lacked a language identifier, tripping
markdownlint MD040. Tag it as text.

pnpm

Fast, disk space efficient package manager:

  • Fast. Up to 2x faster than the alternatives (see benchmark).
  • Efficient. Files inside node_modules are linked from a single content-addressable storage.
  • Great for monorepos.
  • Strict. A package can access only dependencies that are specified in its package.json.
  • Deterministic. Has a lockfile called pnpm-lock.yaml.
  • Works as a Node.js version manager. See pnpm runtime.
  • Works everywhere. Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Battle-tested. Used in production by teams of all sizes since 2016.
  • Experimental Rust port. Includes pacquet, an experimental port of the CLI written in Rust.
  • See the full feature comparison with npm and Yarn.

To quote the Rush team:

Microsoft uses pnpm in Rush repos with hundreds of projects and hundreds of PRs per day, and weve found it to be very fast and reliable.

Background

pnpm uses a content-addressable filesystem to store all files from all module directories on a disk. When using npm, if you have 100 projects using lodash, you will have 100 copies of lodash on disk. With pnpm, lodash will be stored in a content-addressable storage, so:

  1. If you depend on different versions of lodash, only the files that differ are added to the store. If lodash has 100 files, and a new version has a change only in one of those files, pnpm update will only add 1 new file to the storage.
  2. All the files are saved in a single place on the disk. When packages are installed, their files are linked from that single place consuming no additional disk space. Linking is performed using either hard-links or reflinks (copy-on-write).

As a result, you save gigabytes of space on your disk and you have a lot faster installations! If you'd like more details about the unique node_modules structure that pnpm creates and why it works fine with the Node.js ecosystem, read this small article: Flat node_modules is not the only way.
