Add shortcut command to launch into diagnostic shell

Matthias Käppler requested to merge mk-diagnostic-shell into master

I noticed that during the mimemagic incident there was no convenient or apparent way to even interact with GCK containers, because the existing commands all try to compose up them, but that requires them to execute all entrypoint scripts successfully, including bundle install, which failed, so we have a catch-22.

I tried:

  • make shell
  • COMMAND=... make command

both didn't work because they try to up spring including all dependencies first.

So I added a new make target: diagnostic-shell which replaces the entrypoint by launching straight into bash and drops the container after running.
