Improve kubeapps-apis dockerfile and docs (#6589)

### Description of the change

Just a minor PR mainly sorting the `ARG`s and adding some comments to
make it easier to find the latest release. Also, making the download of
golangci-lint conditional.
Finally, adding `GRPC_HEALTH_PROBE_VERSION` to the docs, so that we can
find it easily.

### Benefits

### Possible drawbacks
