Description
Today it's possible to publish a multi-arch container manifest that is an OCI format, but contains inner images that are Docker format. This is an error - all formats (Docker or OCI) should be unified. Some tools will accept this mismatch, but others will error and force compliance. The MDE team found this as it impacted their migrations to SDK containers.
Fix
This PR determines if we are in a scenario in the outer-build where we are publishing an OCI manifest wrapper and forces the inner images to be OCI also. There results in exactly one change to the generated inner images: the media type field changes. All other content remains the same.
Workaround
Users can set
<ContainerImageFormat>OCI</ContainerImageFormat>
today to fix this.Risk
Low - this is covered by tests and only applies to a single specific erroring scenario.
