6e89c965f4 switch to "main" branch for development
We're migrating from "master" to "main" as the default development
branch.  This only affects repo itself, not manifests.

58ac1678e8 init: rename --repo-branch to --repo-rev
We refer to this as "revision" in help text, and in REPO_REV envvar,
so rename to --repo-rev to be consistent.  We keep --repo-branch for
backwards compatibility, but as a hidden option.

3645bd2420 docs: document git/python/Ubuntu/Debian release schedules
Going purely on upstream package release cycles doesn't tell the whole
story: a lot of people run LTS distros which will have older versions
of software we want to support.

Build out a table for us to quickly reference when making decisions as
to what versions of git/python we want to support, and when we can drop
them.  This will also help to refer users to as why we made a specific
decision that might be affecting them.
