Add ruleset to protect the main branch

[jnioche]

Probably a good practice to adopt?

Only skimmed through that but yeah, in general it is best to prevent pushing directly to main - not that I'd do that but it could still happen by accident in theory :)

I'd probably still want to retain the ability git push force (well --force-with-lease really) into branches as it is nice to be able to rewrite the history there sometimes (for tidying things up)

I'm totally prone to doing things like that
