[FIXED JENKINS-42521] Add RunWrapper.getCurrentResult()

getCurrentResult() will never be null - if build().getResult() is
null, it'll return Result.SUCCESS.toString(). In a perfect world, I'd
change RunWrapper.getResult() to this behavior, but that'd possibly
break existing logic out in the wild, so a new method it is.
