Changed default branch name for production releases

[dangerousmanjay]

Since github changed its default branch name from 'master' to 'main',
please consider adding auto detection when $ git flow init -d is called

The next release of Gitlab self-hosted and Gitlab.com will also change the default branch name.
It would be fun if git-flow-avh would change it's default to main

From what I can see, BitBucket also made that change: https://bitbucket.org/blog/moving-away-from-master-as-the-default-name-for-branches-in-git

Auto-detect would be best - if the repo in question has main, sure - use it, but if it has master - use that instead.

Any movement on this?
