base-2:build Images are Misssing Some Development Dependencies

The problem
I noticed the following whilst using the build-ruby2.7 image, but I suspect this involves all images that use lambci/lambda-base-2:build.
It appears that several builder dev dependencies are not included via the new base builders as cairo-devel is not included, and I happened to notice that ImageMagick-devel is also not there, which means certain dependencies can't build as seen below:
docker run -it lambci/lambda:build-ruby2.7 /bin/bash
bash-4.2# gem install cairo
Fetching native-package-installer-1.0.9.gem
Fetching pkg-config-1.4.4.gem

Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary
libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may
need configuration options.
The Cause
If you look at the ruby2.5 image then you can see it pulls in the original base image which explicitly installs builder dependencies here..
Looking at the ruby2.7 image it pulls in lambci/lambda-base-2:build.
It's not entirely clear to me yet what this file is doing, but it appears to not be including all the builder dependencies that are listed at the bottom of the readme.
I would be happy to try and fix this with a PR, but I've currently not had the time to fully dive in, so I thought I would open this issue to track it for now.
Yeah, base-2 is a lot smaller (because Amazon Linux 2 is also a lot smaller). If you have dependencies like that you'll need to install them yourself.
I'll make it clear in the README that that's just for the original Amazon Linux 1 based runtimes.
Done! Clarified in README
