Fix PR docker CI when the base image changes (#6809)

# Description of Changes

- Fix PR CI for base-image changes: the embedded build's buildx
container builder could not resolve the locally-built
`stirling-pdf-base:pr-test` and tried to pull it from a registry,
failing the build
- `test-build-docker.yml`: when the base changed, build the embedded
image with the docker driver (`docker build`) so the locally-built base
resolves from the daemon image store
- `docker-compose-tests.yml`: when the base changed, skip the buildx
container builder + gha cache so `test.sh`'s local base build resolves
via the default docker driver
