Description
Feature request
Add a new subcommand to the tkn cli to verify/validate pipeline syntax. There is a dru-run flag, but it requires k8s cluster or at least credentials. Instead we can de-serialize the yaml file and try to create the Tekton resource, which does not require k8s clusters or credentials.
Furthermore we can also test for remote resolutions of referenced objects.

Research direction
Start by reading the tkn CLI's existing dry-run handling and command structure. Clarify the supported YAML validation flow, including Tekton resource creation without a cluster and checks for remote resolutions; done should include a defined subcommand interface and validation behavior.
