TestTrigger_Error had an error test case that was expecting failure due to a
bad kubeconfig input. The kubeconfig was passed in via a flag/global variable
which means in the test its value is "". This is a problem since if the
kubeconfig is an empty string, one of the underlying functions will try to
authenticate using inClusterConfig which means that the test behaves
differently depending on whether in runs in a k8s pod with access to the
apiserver or not. In local and CI runs, the test passes since its either out of
a k8s cluster or running in a pod which cannot talk to the apiserver directly.
But in our nightly tests running in a tekton cluster, it fails.

The test was also using a golden input to exactly match errors. I modified it
to only match the part of errors which we return from our code.

Fixes #795

/kind bug

Verified this fix by running the golang-test task with Triggers on master (fails), and with this patch(pass)!
