Description

Babashka is a pretty nifty little tool that can pretty much replace a direct installation of tools.deps with its bb clojure invocation (it will install the latest / desired version of tools.deps on demand).

It might be nice to provide clojure image variants with only babashka installed as the build-tool. Or would it be better to build these on top of the existing tools-deps images (so they already have the latest version of that pre-installed)?
