In componentize-py Joel's building custom wasi-sdk binaries for more Linux compat which is what maturin, the build tool use there, desires. I don't think there's a concrete reason to have a higher Linux version here, so let's lower it in wasi-sdk itself. This commit switches the build container from Ubuntu 20.04 (glibc 2.31) to AlmaLinux 8 (glibc 2.28). The AlmaLinux container is what Wasmtime uses, for example, and has supported security updates to 2029 and is I believe intended to be used for purposes such as this.
