chore: Fix linter findings for errorlint (part3)

[zak-pawel]

Address findings for errorlint - finds code that can cause problems with the error wrapping scheme introduced in Go 1.13.

It is only part of the bigger job.
After all findings in whole project are handled, we can enable errorlint linter to guard this.

Following findings in plugins/outputs package were fixed:
