Let g.search.modules list all modules

Just an idea, adding in _search_module() (under ​https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/scripts/g.search.modules/g.search.modules.py#L203):

if keywords == ['*']:
    all_modules = []

    for item in items:
        name = item.attrib['name']
        description = item.find('description').text
        module_keywords = item.find('keywords').text

        all_modules.append({
            'name': name,
            'attributes': {
                'keywords': module_keywords,
                'description': description
            }
        })

     return all_modules

works as a proof of concept. Or, add another flag, like -l that will will do this?

This would make it easy to get the full list of existing modules for further processing with standard *nix tools.

That would be very good. Especially, since JSON output is available.
