Description
What would you like added?
It would be nice to upgrade the version of Docker being used to 23+ (current latest is 23.0.3) as this is the first major version of Docker using the new BuildKit backend by default, which offers a number of new features and improvements.
Why is this needed?
Buildkit by default would be nice to leverage as we are currently manually setting environment variables in many spots to enable it.

Research direction
Inspect the repository for Docker version references and the environment variables currently used to enable BuildKit. Confirm how Docker is configured in the runner and update the relevant references to Docker 23 or later. Done means the runner uses the newer Docker version and no longer needs the scattered manual BuildKit settings where the upgrade makes them unnecessary.
