Fix loading `branch=master` patches in the v3 lock transition
This commit fixes an issue pointed out during #9352 where in the v2->v3
lock file transition (currently happening on nightly) Cargo will not
correctly use the previous lock file entry for `[patch]` directives that
point to git dependencies using `branch = 'master'` explicitly. The
reason for this is that Cargo previously, with the v2 format, considered
`branch=master` and `DefaultBranch` to be equivalent dependencies. Now
that Cargo treats those as distinct resolve nodes we need to load lock
files that use `DefaultBranch` and transparently use those for
`branch=master` dependencies.
These lock file nodes do not naturally unify so we have to go out of our
way to get the two to line up in modern Cargo. This was previously done
for the lock file at large, but the previous logic didn't take `[patch]`
into account. Unfortunately almost everything to do with `[patch]` and
lock files is pretty complicated, and this is no exception. The fix here
is wordy, verbose, and quite subtle in how it works. I'm pretty sure it
does work though and I think that this should be good enough to at least
transition most users off the v2 lock file format. Once this has baked
in Cargo for some time (on the scale of a year) I would hope that we
could just remove this logic since it's only really here for a
transitionary period.
Closes#9352
