Test gcloud exit status when detecting master for GCE e2e test
e2e tests exit on error, so without testing the exit status of a command its scripted error message will never be printed.
**What this PR does / why we need it**: This prints the intended "could not detect Kubernetes master" error message instead of a stack trace from e2e test
**Which issue this PR fixes** *(optional, in `fixes #<issue number>(, fixes #<issue_number>, ...)` format, will close that issue when PR gets merged)*: fixes#52474
