Change primary branch name from `master` to `main`

Hey, team, I hope everything is going great!

Since master is an offensive term for descendants of enslaved people (more details here), it'd be preferred to use main instead.

I strongly second this request, @ologbonowiwi.

Thank you for raising this critical point, @ologbonowiwi, and for your support, @wwahammy.

I recognize the value of using inclusive language. However, given our current priorities on higher-impact feature development and bug fixes, this change doesn't fit within our immediate roadmap.

I'd consider reopening this issue when a community member who feels strongly about it can champion the effort. This would involve creating a well-tested PR addressing potential side effects.
