[pass][new feature] item information

[Vahid Ma'ani]

"grep" option search content of crypted files and i should type passphrase
some times for each search. I prefer use as fast and useful option.
furthermore i need edit and change description of server and services every
time i change schematic of our services, therefore i don't want encrypt
description file.
For these reasons, I decide add this option.
