Feature request
Please include the following information:
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
My problem is that I do not want to install Visual Studio with its complex installation options just to create natives images. There are already other compilers like GCC-Mingw64 or Clang-Mingw64 or PellesC to create native Windows x64 executables. Lack of man power in GraalVM does not allow me to use these.
Describe the solution you'd like.
I would like a docker image like https://hub.docker.com/r/amitie10g/visualstudio2022buildtools/tags, so as to mount my project in the image, execute the build and have the executables in my filesystem.
Describe who do you think will benefit the most.
GraalVM users, GraalVM contributors, developers of libraries and frameworks which depend on GraalVM, or even other Programming Languages because I could build a .DLL and header files of my java code and they can link to it on windows, like D, Rust, Zig, ....
Describe alternatives you've considered.
To just install Visual Studio and do the compilation, it has numerous drawbacks, because I maintain a very clean and cotrolled environment for my work.
Additional context.
