[jakarta.ee-spec.committee] Switching Git branches from master to main

[Jean-Louis Monteiro <jlmonteiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've pulled the latest changes in the specification repository because I have a long running task in my todo list to update Messaging and Security pages. For some reason, it struck me that we are still using master in most of our projects.

I've seen many Open Source projects and communities moving from Git master to Git main for the naming. Github has done the switch a while back and this is now the default for new projects.

I personally think we should, too, for the same reason of promoting inclusivity (https://sfconservancy.org/news/2020/jun/23/gitbranchname/).

Bringing it here to collect thoughts and see if we should plan the changes for us and all specifications in Jakarta (MicroProfile too if not done but this is out of the scope here).

Thanks
