openSUSE comes in two flavours: Leap, which is non-rolling, and released
annualy, and Tumbleweed, which is rolling.
Reasons why it makes sense to have both (despite both being openSUSE,
package lists in dockerfiles being quite similar, etc) are:
- Leap share a lot with SUSE Linux Enterprise. So, regressions on Leap,
not only means regressions for all openSUSE Leap users, but also helps
prevent/catch regressions on SLE;
- Tumbleweed often has the most bleeding-edge software, so it will help
us prevent/catch regressions with newly released versions of
libraries, compilers, etc (e.g., at the time of writing this commit,
some build issues, with GCC9, where discovered while trying to build
in a Tumbleweed image).
Note that, considering the rolling nature of Tumbleweed, the container
would need to be rebuilt (e.g., periodically), even if the docker file
does not change.

Using `--no-recommends` when updating or installing commands should
prevent non strictly necessary packages to be installed.
doing a `clean -a` after installing all the packages, should, in
theory, free more space (as opposed to using just `clean`).

The openSUSE Leap container image, built after
opensuse-leap.dockerfile was missing the gcc-c++,
which is necessary, e.g., for building OVMF.
Add it.

Tracks the latest release of openSUSE Leap. At the time of writing this
patch, this is Leap 15.
