Kubernetes provider should allow setting config_path via KUBECONFIG env variable

[ashishth09]

To be consistent with K8s way of setting the config - https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/administer-cluster/share-configuration/, I think we should change the KUBE_CONFIG to KUBECONFIG here

I don't have any problem as such with current variable just that I frequently use KUBECONFIG to work with my cluster and think using same environment variable as k8s would provide a better experience with the provider 😃

You're absolutely right @ashishth09

I wish you came up with that suggestion in my initial K8S PR 😄 - I was wondering if there any standardized ENV vars and I couldn't find any at that time.

See #14889 which is addressing this.
