It is https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/parinfo. No documentation (don't see doc/,
there is only a template). Options are defined in s:_options
(https://bitbucket.org/ZyX_I/parinfo/src/e2d95d730b4b/plugin/parinfo.vim#cl-8)
and are self-explanatory (except for SaveOptions which should not be used at the
current state).
