ci: Replace binfmt container with Debian qemu-user-static

This apparently fixes sporadic crashes of arm64 image builds, see also [1] and [2]. Ubuntu's version of qemu-user does not seem to have this fixed yet either, therefore inject the current Debian package. In addition, this moves away from the floating docker.io/tonistiigi/binfmt:latest that docker/setup-qemu-action@v3 uses. This loose coupling is questionable, not only in the light of this issue.
