[PATCH] Allow comments in .gpg-id

I would probably reach for grep and do something like this 
instead:

diff --git a/src/password-store.sh b/src/password-store.sh index 
77f3eda..ce3f7fb 100755 --- a/src/password-store.sh +++ 
b/src/password-store.sh @@ -99,7 +99,7 @@ set_gpg_recipients() { 
   verify_file "$current" 
  
   local gpg_id 
-       while read -r gpg_id; do +  grep -Eo '^[^#]+' | grep -Ev 
'^\s*$' | while read -r gpg_id; do 
     GPG_RECIPIENT_ARGS+=( "-r" "$gpg_id" ) GPG_RECIPIENTS+=( 
     "$gpg_id" ) 
   done < "$current" 


This will remove comments no matter if they're full lines or not, 
and will remove any lines containing only whitespace as well.

I'm not sure about using `grep -E` though. It's more portable than 
`grep -e` or `egrep`, but I'm not sure if it'd be better to use 
`grep -P`, or if it's better to simply loop over all lines and use 
Bash regexes and BASH_REMATCH to remove comments and empty lines.
