Version 3.42 breaks some variable usages inside go templates

[vctls]

Description

I have multiple taskfiles that use the following pattern to factorize global variables that are expensive to initialize:

version: "3"
vars:
  FOO:
    sh: |-
      echo {{ if .TASK | contains "bar"}}baz{{end}}
tasks:
  bar:
    cmd: echo {{.FOO}}

This worked fine in 3.41.0:

❯ task bar
task: [bar] echo baz
baz

Now in version 3.42, I get the following error:

❯ task bar
template: :1:28: executing "" at <"bar">: invalid value; expected string

Which suggests that the TASK variable is not a string.

But if I do this:

version: "3"
vars:
  FOO:
    sh: |-
      echo {{.TASK}}
tasks:
  bar:
    cmd: echo {{.FOO}}

…then the value of the variable is printed:

❯ task bar
task: [bar] echo bar
bar

Not sure what's going on here.
Maybe I'm using the variables in an unexpected way.

@vctls Thanks for the report and repro. I've created a fix in #2107 and we'll get a patch release done soon. I suggest sticking to 3.41 until then.
