Issue body

Docker Hub is fast but the Ubuntu images are updated infrequently and the registry itself has pull limits for anonymous users. This limit is annoying because currently rockcraft does not caching of base images. The caching is coming, but in the meantime switch to Amazon ECR. The registry has newer images and is only a little bit slower (from testing) than Docker Hub).
