I figured this patch is just a straight-forward update, and quite an
important one, so I've just gone ahead and pushed it, adding an extra
comment that the emacs package version doesn't match the password-store
program version.

I figured maintainer's time are better spend not reviewing trivial
patches too much unless it's for onboarding newcomers :-).

Please shout if there are any issues!

Thanks,
Pierre
