Secure note storage

I suggest:

1. To mark files that have Note in their names or files from Notes directory to have special treatment.
2. For consistency with pass, a note is structured like ordinary password file. With one key difference: everything after the first line (after password line) is treated as Markdown and is displayed with nice font similar to the iOS Bear.app

"To mark files that have Note in their names or files from Notes directory to have special treatment."

If this is not how everyone uses Pass, this may cause side effects...

We could add a setting for that, of course.

A quick idea: how about using something like

-----BEGIN MARKDOWN NOTE-----

in the first line to indicate that the file contains a markdown note.

This has a few advantages IMHO:

1. It does not rely on a custom file/folder name scheme
2. If you see the plaintext (e.g. using the pass command line tool) you know immediately what’s going on
3. It shouldn’t break any existing implementation
4. Annotations like this are pretty standard in the GPG context, so it’s more likely to become a quasi-standard among GUI-Apps
