I picked 11 in order to keep the container in sync with the
lcitool-generated dockerfiles. Once we switch lcitool from 11 to
12, it is easier to see what the changes are and replicate them in
debian-tricore-cross and friends.

lcitool support for Debian 12 has already landed, but usually we
try to keep the containers on the oldest supported release of a
distro, and that is currently Debian 11.
