Description

I suggest integrating what NMica Dockerfile generation does to improve the efficiency of layering. https://github.com/NMica/NMica Here's an in-depth blog post on what it does http://stakhov.pro/building-efficient-net-docker-images/

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the NMica Dockerfile generation approach mentioned in the issue and blog post. Identify how it improves layering efficiency for .NET Docker images, then explore how to integrate similar improvements into Tye's existing Dockerfile generation logic. Focus on comparing the current multi layer build strategy with the proposed approach.
