Rename trunk branch to main branch

  Rename trunk branch to main branch

  The term "trunk" is too close to "branch", imo, and is confusing since its
  inverse term, "thread", isn't related to branch at all. Ultimately I think it's
  best to leave "branch" as a git specific term, and use "main" and "thread" to
  denote the different branch types of dehub.

+Each commit in `main` can have its credentials verified locally. Credentials
 are currently provided by pgp signatures, so your trust in the git chain can be
 as strong as your trust in those signatures. Support for other kinds of

 trust the user has.
