The naming of our default branch master, while very common, can be seen as
offensive.
I would like to propose that after the release of YuniKorn 1.2 we rename
our default branch from master to "trunk". There are other options like:
"main" or "development".

We cannot execute the rename ourselves and need the help of the Apache
Infra team. After this change we will need to update github workflows,
documentation and some of the tools we use.

After the renaming, all local clones will need to be updated to point to
the trunk. The process of how to do that is well documented [1] but it does
require action from everyone.

two things that we need to confirm:
* the timing first action after the release of YuniKorn 1.2
* the name of the new default branch to become "trunk"
