[PATCH 2/3] fast-export: anonymize "master" refname

From: Jeff King <peff@peff.net>

Message-ID: <20200619132640.GB2540774@coredump.intra.peff.net>
In-Reply-To: <20200619132304.GA2540657@coredump.intra.peff.net>

Running "fast-export --anonymize" will leave "refs/heads/master" untouched in the output, for two reasons:

  - it helped to have some known reference point between the original
    and anonymized repository

  - since it's historically the default branch name, it doesn't leak any
    information

Now that we can ask fast-export to dump the anonymized ref mapping, we have a much better tool for the first one (because it works for _any_ ref, not just master).

For the second, the notion of "default branch name" is likely to become configurable soon, at which point the name _does_ leak information. Let's drop this special case in preparation.

Note that we have to adjust the test a bit, since it relied on using the name "master" in the anonymized repos. But this gives us a good opportunity to further test the new dumping feature.
