[bug#50426] [PATCH] import: elpa: Don't hardcode default branch to 'master'.

[Xinglu Chen]

Otherwise, remotes without a branch named 'master' will cause an error when
importing.

* guix/import/elpa (git-repository->origin): Fallback to HEAD instead of the
  'master' branch.
---
For example, try to import the ‘consult’ package from MELPA:
