[madgraph2021 build v0.6] Fixes for madgraph cpu-only runs and for docker caching
This ME for Madgraph "2021" is mainly about:
- BMK-983: fixes the issue with CPU-only runs of the container
- it also includes an upgrade of madgraph 2021 to cuda 11.6 (from 11.4) and gcc 10.2 (from 9.2), using the same madgraph code
It also includes fixes for other infrastructure issues:
- BMK-1010: improve docker layer caching in the CI, by keeping newly created docker layers for at least one week in the CI
-
BMK-998: clarify that the correct tag for gpu runners is
hep-workload-gpu-docker-builder
(nothep-workload-docker-builder-gpu
, which was an unintentional bug) - BMK-1008: fix a comment about a patch that previously had been incorrectly documented as related to BMK-1009
This will build the official container v0.6 of madgraph 2021
