Description

Let's make defaultBranch synonymous with master.

The currently supported GitHub prebuild configuration settings are (with defaults)

github:
  prebuilds:
    master: true
    branches: false
    pullRequests: true
    pullRequestsFromForks: false
    addCheck: true
    addComment: false
    addBadge: false

Research direction

Start with the GitHub prebuild settings represented in .gitpod.yml and review the related discussion in #7426. Trace how the existing master setting is recognized; done means defaultBranch is accepted as its synonym while the documented defaults remain consistent.
