Hi Christo,

Thanks for sorting out the docker images.

I did the following:
- checked the signatures and checksums
- ran the quickstart with the binary, docker and docker native images
- built from source and ran the tests with Java 21

+1 binding

Please open the PR for kafka-site too, so we have time to review the
changes too.

Thanks,
Mickael
