Replace manual disk cleanup with quick-cleanup

[sebrandon1]

Summary

Replace manual disk cleanup scripts with the shared palmsoftware/quick-cleanup GitHub Action.

This consolidates the manual cleanup (swapoff, swap removal, docker system prune) into a single maintained action as a separate step before the publish step. It also provides automatic Docker storage relocation to the larger /mnt partition.

Already in use

quick-cleanup is already adopted in production workflows across multiple repos:

• crc-org/crc — CRC (OpenShift Local)
• palmsoftware/quick-ocp — OpenShift cluster deployment action
• palmsoftware/quick-k8s — Kubernetes cluster deployment action (KinD/Minikube)

Changes

• Updated .github/workflows/push.yml — extracted cleanup into separate palmsoftware/quick-cleanup@v0 step

Benefits

• Less boilerplate — replaces manual swap/prune commands
• Docker relocation — automatically moves Docker storage to /mnt (larger partition)
• Adaptive cleanup — adjusts intensity based on available space
• Disk reporting — built-in before/after df -h output
• Maintained upstream — cleanup targets updated as runner images change
• Apache 2.0 licensed

Walkthrough

GitHub Actions workflow updated in the push.yml file to refactor disk space cleanup operations. A new dedicated step using the palmsoftware/quick-cleanup action was added to run before container image publishing, and three explicit cleanup commands were removed from the "Publish container image" step.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
GitHub Actions Workflow .github/workflows/push.yml	Added "Free up disk space" step with palmsoftware/quick-cleanup@v0 action (runs only for vmware-tanzu/velero repo); removed sudo swapoff -a, sudo rm -f /mnt/swapfile, and docker system prune -a --force commands from the "Publish container image" step.

Pin palmsoftware/quick-cleanup to a commit SHA.

Using a mutable tag (@v0) weakens supply-chain integrity. Pin to the specific commit SHA (21be80c22ed5745594aa5ca6350089499d54db4b) and keep the tag as a comment for traceability.
