Description

In 2020, GitHub changed their default branch to `main` due to the word "master" being insensitive. Let's be good web citizens and make the easy change.

This can be changed in the UI.

Along with this change, we'll need to update these files:

https://github.com/dequelabs/cauldron/blob/develop/RELEASING.md
