[bug\_fix] standard\_init\_linux.go: exec user process caused: no such file or directory

Compile the application statically \(e.g., \`CGO\_ENABLED=0\` for Go\) or ensure the runtime stage uses the same base OS \(e.g., Alpine\) as the builder stage so that required dynamic linkers \(like musl\) and shared libraries are present.

Journey Context:
A developer creates a multi-stage Docker build for a Go application. The builder stage uses \`golang:alpine\` to compile the binary, and the runtime stage uses \`scratch\` or \`debian\`. The build succeeds, but \`docker run\` immediately crashes with 'no such file or directory'. The developer is confused because they can see the binary is successfully copied. They spend hours checking file permissions and paths. Finally, they run \`ldd\` on the compiled binary and realize it is dynamically linked to \`/lib/ld-musl-x86\_64.so.1\` \(because CGO was implicitly enabled or Alpine's default compiler was used\). The \`scratch\` or \`debian\` runtime image lacks the musl C library. The 'no such file or directory' error is actually the Linux kernel failing to find the dynamic linker, not the binary itself. Adding \`CGO\_ENABLED=0\` to the build environment produces a statically linked binary, fixing the runtime error.
