[aws-ecr] Docker image build and push separately

Build Environment

Hi,

I want to build an image in one job once and push it in another job rather than using build_and_push_image. It is because I am using matrix in CircleCI to push image to 10 AWS regions so if I was to use build_and_push_image with matrix, it would have built image 10 times as well which is waste of time. This is why I am aiming to split image building and pushing into two different jobs. Note: I think this is how it works with this orb but If I am misunderstanding please let me know.

Is there a way to manage this requirement using circleci/aws-ecr or do I have to do some funky manual work?

Thank you
