Title: shell metadata and help system

Hi! Like the project so far, thought I'd throw my $.02 in...

I maintain a small script, [composure](http://git.io/composure), which aims to help make writing shell functions more intuitive.

I use composure to add metadata to my shell functions, such as api documentation. In these two commits, I've imported composure, and polished up the base.plugin.bash file with a rudimentary api documentation and help system.

I'm not really expecting you'll pull this in verbatim, but I did want to say hi, and perhaps get feedback on the metadata technique itself, and see if there's any interest in pursuing this approach for bash-it.

To see the help system in action, try:

```bash
$ reference
and
$ reference down4me
```
