Summary

Add the Firebase CLI (firebase-tools) to the base stage of the image so all variants (ci, coder, coder-xfce-vnc) inherit it.

Why

CI/CD pipelines (e.g. asgolf-longwy/frontend) need the firebase CLI to deploy Hosting/Functions/Firestore rules and to run the Firebase Emulator Suite (Firestore rules unit-testing). The emulator requires a JDK, which the base already provides (Azul Zulu). The only missing piece is the Firebase CLI, which is currently absent from every variant.

Approach

Install the standalone Firebase CLI in the base stage via the official installer:

RUN curl -fsSL https://firebase.tools | bash

The standalone binary bundles its own Node runtime, so it works in base even though base has no system Node. This mirrors how GuillaumeHemmen/debian-node-firebase installs it. Update README.md to mention the Firebase CLI.

Acceptance criteria

firebase --version works in the ci, coder, and coder-xfce-vnc images.
README.md documents the Firebase CLI in the base/variants.
A CalVer release tag is pushed on merge (next: 26.25.1).

Consumed by the asgolf-longwy/frontend CI image migration.
