The name of the primary branch in existing repositories, and the
default name used for the first branch in newly created
repositories, is made configurable, so that we can eventually wean
ourselves off of the hardcoded 'master'.
* js/default-branch-name:
contrib: subtree: adjust test to change in fmt-merge-msg
testsvn: respect `init.defaultBranch`
remote: use the configured default branch name when appropriate
clone: use configured default branch name when appropriate
init: allow setting the default for the initial branch name via the config
init: allow specifying the initial branch name for the new repository
docs: add missing diamond brackets
submodule: fall back to remote's HEAD for missing remote.<name>.branch
send-pack/transport-helper: avoid mentioning a particular branch
fmt-merge-msg: stop treating `master` specially
The default name of the initial branch in new repositories can now be
configured. The `testsvn` remote helper translates the remote Subversion
repository's branch name `trunk` to the hard-coded name `master`.
Clearly, the intention was to make the name align with Git's defaults.
So while we are not talking about a newly-created repository in the
`testsvn` context, it is a newly-created _Git_ repository, si it _still_
makes sense to use the overridden default name for the initial branch
whenever users configured it.

It is totally legitimate to clone Git's source code anywhere, including
into, say, directories whose name (or the name of its absolute path)
contains spaces.
However, a couple of tests failed to anticipate this, for lack of
quoting (or in one instance, for failure to expect more than one space
in the absolute path of the TEST_DIRECTORY). This can be easily verified
by calling these commands in your current clone:
git clone . with\ spaces
cd with\ spaces
make -j15 test
Let's fix this.

The test helper svnrdump_sim.py is used as "svnrdump" during the
execution of this test, but the arrangement was not optimal:
- it relied on symbolic links;
- unportable "export VAR=VAL" was used;
- GIT_BUILD_DIR variable was not quoted correctly;
- it assumed that the Python interpreter is in /usr/bin/ and
called "python" (i.e. not "python2.7" etc.)
Rework this by writing a small shell script that spawns the right
Python interpreter, using the right quoting.

Use svnrdump_sim.py to emulate svnrdump without an svn server.
Tests fetching, incremental fetching, fetching from file://,
and the regeneration of fast-import's marks file.
