As a GitLab Runner user,
I would like to run job steps with images based on non-Debian distros,
So I may avoid having to build new base images and other silly things just because the cloud.gov runner doesn't know how to install packages correctly.
Proposed Solution
- Add package install support for Alpine (apk seems busted right now)
- Add package install support for RedHat (there is no rpm install at all right now)
- Consider a potential fail-safe that would pull binaries with curl and check sigs?
Acceptance Criteria
- Jobs run with an Alpine based image work
- Jobs run with a RedHat based image work
Additional Info
The current guilty code:

APK seems to just be missing which is odd. Also odd is npm not being available on a Node image. Could be related?
