And for lot's of other packages as well .. :-)

We used main for https://github.com/bat/RunStatistics.jl recently, it was fairly painless.

Apparently Documenter can figure out if the branch name is main or master automatically now (JuliaDocs/Documenter.jl@b90aa47), so even devbranch = "main" in deploydocs should be unnecessary now. :-)
