Driver image v0.8.1 missing from registry

[ArthurMelin]

/kind bug

What happened?
I cannot deploy the driver because the driver image is missing from the container registries and cannot be pulled.
Trying to pull the image with docker result in a manifest not found error.

What you expected to happen?
The image should be present on the registry.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?
kubectl apply -k "github.com/kubernetes-sigs/aws-ebs-csi-driver/deploy/kubernetes/overlays/stable/?ref=release-0.8"
or
docker pull k8s.gcr.io/provider-aws/aws-ebs-csi-driver:v0.8.1
or
docker pull amazon/aws-ebs-csi-driver:v0.8.1

Environment

• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version): v1.18.9
• Driver version: v0.8.1

kubernetes/k8s.io#1509 just merged, it seems available now.

I'm sorry about this happening twice in a row, with the new release process there is a large window between when I update the yamls to refer to the new tags and when the tag actually gets pushed.

As I commented in #646 (comment), I think the fix is to change our release process to update the yamls in a post-release update

For docker hub, only the amazonlinux variant v0.8.1-amazonlinux is going to be available. I will work on documenting this or getting permission to push the debian variant

[wongma7]

Regarding my last comment, here is a PR to ensure docker hub gets the debian base image (vx.x.x) and not just the amazonlinux one (vx.x.x-amazonlinux) #686

Ok I can pull the image now, thank you!
