Can't use --source on a CloudEvents source

[jmcx]

How to reproduce

tmctl create source cloudevents
tmctl create transformation --source foo-cloudeventssource --from my-configs/trans1.txt
Error: "foo-cloudeventssource" event types: event types: unexpected end of JSON input

Thoughts

I think I understand why this doesn't work: because the CLI is looking for the "type" definition (in a CRD or in an instance of a CRD) that it can use in the Trigger filter, but won't find one for CloudEvents source, because the type is provided at runtime along with an event.

I don't yet have ideas on how to solve this but wanted to log it now to keep track of it.

Although one short-term fix would be update the error message to indicate that this won't work for this specific event source (assuming that is indeed the case).

Can we close this for now @tzununbekov ?
