Runs a BuildTrigger at a particular source revision.
To run a regional or global trigger, use the POST request that includes the location endpoint in the path (ex. v1/projects/{projectId}/locations/{region}/triggers/{triggerId}:run). The POST request that does not include the location endpoint in the path can only be used when running global triggers.
