The quickstart <https://iceberg.apache.org/spark-quickstart/> page is a
critical touchpoint for new users and plays a key role in driving project
adoption.
Currently, it references *tabulario/spark-iceberg* and
*tabulario/iceberg-rest*

We’ve already replaced *tabulario/iceberg-rest* with the
community-maintained Docker image, *apache/iceberg-rest-fixture*, based on
the REST TCK fixture.

However, *tabulario/spark-iceberg* seems outdated, and doesn't use the
latest Iceberg version.
To enhance the user experience and keep the quickstart aligned with project
standards, I suggest hosting it either under the /docker folder in the
Iceberg repository
or as a subproject called *apache/iceberg-playground* where users can
contribute to maintain other docker images.

The quickstart page should ideally reference images maintained by the
community rather than vendor-specific open-source projects.

Thoughts?
