Branches Map should provide a default

[splatterb0y]

I run renovate to automatically create merge requests for composer updates and run them on gitlab ci pipelines, these pipelines generate new artifact. Would love to see a default so commits for artifacts can be done without updating the branch map everytime. Maybe by just appending "-build" to the branch name if no mapping is defined?

Hi!

I suggest that we could add a new configuration property named branch_artifact_name that allows setting the name of the generated branch based on the current branch name.

Example:

branch_artifact_name: {branch_name}-build

{branch_name} is a placeholder of the detected branch.

This only needs that the command have the branch name available, either by reading it from the current repository or passing it through the --branch argument.

This solution would provide a default branch name for the artifacts created on your gitlab pipelines. Is that okay for you?

Sounds awesome!
