Subject: [PATCH] Update git.plugin.zsh

refactor: use symbolic-ref to determine default branch

Replaced manual scanning of possible main branch names with
`git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD` for a more reliable and
modern approach to detecting the repository's default branch.

Includes fallback to traditional branch name checks if the symbolic-ref
fails, ensuring backward compatibility.
