the official mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:ltsc2022 image does not ship with some binaries so as to reduce the image size. Some of those are needed for testing, etc. We are therefore creating a custom nanoserver aka nanoserver-plus image that ships with these binaries, and more others as needed Signed-off-by: Anthony Nandaa <[email protected]>

Because of reducing the footprint, nanoserver usually ships with as minimal binaries as possible. A few of those binaries left out are important for running integration tests on buildkit, for example comparing two files with
fc.exe, that's a legacy tool found atC:\Windows\System32\fc.exe. The alternative is to use ServerCore which is very huge, and makes for instance one test to take 10x the time. e.g.With servercore:
With nanoserver (plus):
