The recently introduced failure handling in ExpectNoError depends on error
wrapping: if an error prefix gets added with `fmt.Errorf("foo: %v", err)`, then
ExpectNoError cannot detect that the root cause is an assertion failure and
then will add another useless "unexpected error" prefix and will not dump the
additional failure information (currently the backtrace inside the E2E
framework).
Instead of manually deciding on a case-by-case basis where %w is needed, all
error wrapping was updated automatically with
sed -i "s/fmt.Errorf\(.*\): '*\(%s\|%v\)'*\",\(.* err)\)/fmt.Errorf\1: %w\",\3/" $(git grep -l 'fmt.Errorf' test/e2e*)
This may be unnecessary in some cases, but it's not wrong.

The previous approach with grabbing via a nginx proxy had some
drawbacks:
- it did not work when the pods only listened on localhost (as
configured by kubeadm) and the proxy got deployed on a different
node
- starting the proxy raced with starting the pods, causing
sporadic test failures because the proxy was not set up
properly unless it saw all pods when starting the e2e.test
- the proxy was always started, whether it is needed or not
- the proxy was left running after a test and then the next
test run triggered potentially confusing messages when
it failed to create objects for the proxy
The new approach is similar to "kubectl port-forward" + "kubectl get
--raw". It uses the port forwarding feature to establish a TCP
connection via a custom dialer, then lets client-go handle TLS and
credentials.
Somehow verifying the server certificate did not work. As this
shouldn't be a big concern for E2E testing, certificate checking gets
disabled on the client side instead of investigating this further.
