…rce containers.

Changes

As part of TEP-0025 (hermetic builds), we need to know which containers/steps are part
of the "Tekton system" and which ones are part of the Task definition. This PR adds
the TEKTON_RESOURCE_NAME environment variable to the injected copy containers.

This variable is already used by several of the existing resources (git, image).

Hey @dlorenc!

Is this environment variable at all user facing and would it make sense to include in our docs at all? If it is user facing (it seems like it would be exposed to a user's containers or maybe im misunderstanding?) I want to understand if we're starting to set a precedent of making Env vars available to containers which many CI/CD systems do but so far we've avoided (opting for variable replacement instead)

No this is explicitly not user facing. This is only set on the non-user-facing containers, as a way for the entrypoint to tell if it is inside a user-facing container or not.

Does the entrypoint uses this at all ? What would be the use case for the entrypoint to use it ? Or is it for external tools to know that ?
