Description
First of all, thank you for this image. 🎉
While updating our scripts to use specified version, I found a small inconsistency with the distro packages in library/gcc:15-bookworm that it does not have a versioned gcc-15 in PATH. Instead, there is gcc-12 at /usr/bin/gcc-12. It would be nice to keep it consistent with regular Debian installation, where they install the versioned variants alongside the suffixed ones.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the image definition for library/gcc:15-bookworm and compare its package setup with a regular Debian installation. Check the current /usr/bin/gcc-12 entry and determine how the versioned GCC binary is exposed in PATH. Done means the image provides the expected versioned GCC command consistently with the Debian installation.
