Changes

Fixes #2936

The contents of task results are not processed by Tekton in any way - leading
and trailing whitespace characters are emitted verbatim from files written to
/tekton/results.

This commit adds documentation to make clear that Tekton does not process result
contents in any way.

In addition, I've added a short intro to the beginning of the results section
to give some focus on what results are useful for.

/lgtm

one more section on Consuming Results might be helpful as well, emphasizing that the consumer task ends up having dependency on the emitting results task and executed after the dependencies are executed successfully.

(if not documented anywhere 🙏 and could be separate PR)

There are a couple of places where it looks like we describe how results appear:

  • The TaskRun doc describes a bit about their appearance in the Status section of the resource.
  • The Pipeline doc describes a bit about referencing results between tasks and mentions the task ordering.

I think that Pipeline doc could use a bit of work to make it a tad clearer. I also notice that the link from there to this doc's results section is broken. I'll make a PR for that. Good call, thanks @pritidesai !
