[bug\_fix] failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: pull access denied for docker/dockerfile

Remove the \# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1 directive if the BuildKit image cannot be pulled, or update Docker to a version with BuildKit natively integrated, or configure proxy/mirrors.

Journey Context:
A developer adds \# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1 to the top of their Dockerfile to use advanced BuildKit features like --mount=type=cache. The build immediately fails with a 'pull access denied' or 'frontend' error. They debug by checking network access. They realize the syntax directive forces BuildKit to pull the docker/dockerfile image from Docker Hub before processing the Dockerfile. In an air-gapped environment or one with strict firewall rules, this pull fails. Removing the directive falls back to the local BuildKit binary bundled with Docker, which in newer versions already supports these features natively.
