The geode-native build, like most c++ projects, requires a fairly specific 
toolchain.  Now that we have a docker build environment [1], I’d like to ask 
INFRA to automate the creation and publishing of docker images for 
geode-native.  This can be done by integrating GitHub / DockerHub [2].  Note 
that the docker image would *only* be for build purposes and would not contain 
source or binaries from geode-native.  By publishing our build toolchain in a 
docker image:

1) it makes contributing easier
2) it makes our travis-ci builds faster (currently at ~30min) 
3) it paves the way to create a nightly Jenkins job for geode-native

I suggest publishing this image under the apache namespace [3] as 
geode-native-build.  Thoughts?
