/assign dgoodwin

During upgrade prow jobs the kubeconfig Secret volume is re-mounted by
the kubelet, which atomically swaps symlinks and creates a sub-second
window where ReadFile() returns ENOENT or reads empty/partial content.
With 10-15 parallel Ginkgo goroutines all calling GetClientConfig() on
every client creation, this window reliably causes mass test failures.

Replace the single ReadFile attempt with a wait.PollImmediate retry
(200ms interval, 10s timeout) that retries on file-not-found, empty
file, or clientcmd parse errors. Non-transient I/O errors still fail
immediately. Adds unit tests covering all four cases.

Fixes: OCPBUGS-84504
