please rename mptcpd 'master' branch to 'main' #289

many open-source projects are gradually transitioning their 'master' branch to a less inconvenient name ('main' or similar) [1] [2]. Any objections to transition mptcpd as well?

(BTW, I see that the kernel code can be made 'compliant' with a 3-line patch, I can follow-up on the ML if you don't disagree)

I've renamed the default branch to main (to update references in github PRs and such).

For now, master is still pointing to the same git commit. After a transition period we can remove that reference.

Thanks for suggesting and making this change!
