build: copy imager artifacts via docker cp for DinD runners

The Gitea act_runners on the fondation cluster run jobs in containers
against a docker:dind sidecar (socket at /shared/docker.sock). A nested
`docker run -v ./_out:/out` resolves the path on the dind daemon's
filesystem, not the job container, so the installer tar / raw image never
came back and `crane push ./_out/...` failed.

Run the imager without an output bind mount (anonymous /out volume) and
pull artifacts back with `docker cp`, which streams over the Docker API
and works under DinD, a shared socket, or a local daemon. Also drop `-t`
(no TTY in container-mode steps) and name+clean the containers.
