Bug Description

When pushing an image to a registry, it looks like launchpad defaults to the "edge" tag name. This bug is two-fold I guess:
a) support arbitrary names in the push rule. Something like "repo/name:tag". This would mean that the image that lp just build would have to be retagged with "<tag>" before the push, or have some other way of requesting the tag name from the user prior to the build
b) support dynamic tags, for versions. Much like a deb build recipe has a version and adds it to d/changelog, we could want to have a version number as the tag, and push that to the registry.

We'd also be very interested in this as we have some charms where application version upgrades are driven by changing the image location, so we'd like to be able to deploy `appteam/app:v1` and then trigger a version upgrade by changing to `appteam/app:v2` for instance. Having these created via the OCI recipe would be extremely useful.

CPC team would also be interested in that. the ubuntu base images on dockerhub do have a SERIAL tag and we would like to be able to use that tag as well when pushing eg. to AWS ECR public.
Given that we don't want to adjust the oci recipe when the tag name changes, there must be eg. a file in the git repo in a specific format that can define tags and LP is reading that file then for applying the tags.

Thanks for the interest shown on this one, it helps us know more about improvements that can be done Launchpad.

Unfortunately, the tagging process for ROCKs images and its ownership is something that is being evaluated right now by Product so although the suggested capability has potential to eventually exists there's no work being done on it right now.

Will keep you updated.

Thanks.
