To fix a failure in our docs-cherrypick automation. This started to fail today, I suspect because
github silently changed the order the labels were being returned, and by default it only
returns 30 labels.
We currently have 68 labels, so using per_page=100 (the maximum allowed) we should be able to fix
this failure.
The main branch is being renamed from master->main. This commit should
update all references to the main branch to the new name.

If an automatic backport fails to more than one release branch we need
to crate a PR to backport it. So far we've had to create a backport PR
for each target release branch.
With this change, we may be able to create only a single PR, and then
run the backport automation to cherry-pick it into other release
branches.
The idea is that if a change introduced in version n-1 caused a
conflict, and there are no other changes, then the backport automation
should be able to use the same commit for version n-2 and n-3.
This change assumes that it is always safe to use the first commit
parent as the mainline. I believe this assumption is safe with a
github merge workflow.
