[FEA]: Publish a Morpheus models container

[dagardner-nv]

Is this a new feature, an improvement, or a change to existing functionality?

Improvement

How would you describe the priority of this feature request

Low (would be nice)

Please provide a clear description of problem this feature solves

We advertise in our documentation that this is the easiest way to start using Morpheus and the pre-trained modules is to use one of our pre-built Docker containers on NGC. However this introduces a few difficulties :

1. Our containers are large because they include the models
2. The models are inside the container, requiring the user to launch triton from inside the container, which means they need to mount the docker socket file
3. The docker command isn't in the container requiring the user to run the docker/install_docker.sh script

Describe your ideal solution

Publish a separate models container that layers on top of Triton

Describe any alternatives you have considered

Install docker in the default container image

The models are inside the container, requiring the user to launch triton from inside the container, which means they need to mount the docker socket file
The docker command isn't in the container requiring the user to run the docker/install_docker.sh script

The k8s instructions have the user copy out the models, configs, datasets to a host path that can be shared amongst the containers.

[dagardner-nv]

@pdmack does that require access to the kubectl command, and thus require running in K8? Is there an equivalent for users running docker locally?

[pdmack]

A user could also use the docker cp ... command to move the models out of the container to a host path.

[dagardner-nv]

That would be a viable alternative then.

Part of this would be to revert and adjust the changes in #1507
