Introduce the logical variable GIT_DEFAULT_BRANCH which represents the
the default branch name that will be used by "git init".
Currently this variable is equivalent to
git config init.defaultbranch || 'master'
This however will break if at one point the default branch is changed as
indicated by `default_branch_name_advice` in `refs.c`.
By providing this command ahead of time users of git can make their
code forward-compatible.

Fix a couple of tests that would potentially fail under
GIT_TEST_FAIL_PREREQS=true.
I missed these when annotating other tests in dfe1a17df9 ("tests: add
a special setup where prerequisites fail", 2019-05-13) because on my
system I can only reproduce this failure when I run the tests as
"root", since the tests happen to depend on whether we can fall back
on GECOS info or not. I.e. they'd usually fail to look up the ident
info anyway, but not always.

We do not currently have any explicit tests for "git var" at
all (though we do exercise it to some degree as a part of
other tests). Let's add a few basic sanity checks.
