There has been a recent push to rename the default branch for git repositories to be something more inclusive than 'master'. Qiskit would like to make this transition and rename the default branch to 'main'. However, qiskit-bot has been blocking this transition because it unconditionally was using 'master' for generating pull requests, updating local checkouts, etc. To address this and enable us to transition away from using 'master' for our default branch this commit adds a new optional per repo configuration option 'default_branch' which is used to set the default branch for a repository. If not set it defaults to using master so there is no breaking change for the deployed bot and we can update the configuration as we rename the branches. Similarly for the metapackage repository a new optional configuration option, 'meta_repo_default_branch', is added that behaves the same way but for the meta_repo.

With the pending support being added to qiskit-bot in Qiskit/qiskit-bot#9 we're able to rename the default branch for the repository to 'main'. However, when we do that several things will need to be updated, most importantly the CI trigger was hardcoded to the previous default branch 'master. This commit fixes these references and should be merged after we rename the branch to re-enable CI.

Yeah I think that's fair to do once all of qiskit has migrated to use |
