[Feat] Use common layers/dockerfile for Ubuntu wxGUI docker image
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]
Now, we are using different Dockerfiles for Ubuntu and Ubuntu with wxPython GUI. The Dockerfile for Ubuntu already contains stages to build a GUI image, but is unused. Now that we build some core dependent libraries from source, we might as well reuse them as much as possible.
Describe the solution you'd like A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.
By carefully designing the layers of the common build stages, we could reuse layers as is for both images, and install additional gui libraries later on (adding a layer with more dependencies). All layers (and stages) before our grass compilation should be common in both images.
Also make sure that the cache scope allows sharing of both. Otherwise, if really not possible, build both images in the same job, so the build cache exists on the host.
Describe alternatives you've considered A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.

Testing a version with re-ordered build stages here: https://github.com/ninsbl/grass/pull/15 and more specificly here: https://github.com/ninsbl/grass/actions/runs/18677226036/job/53249788035?pr=15 Will open a PR once I am somewhat comfortable with the updated Dockerfiles...
