[Edbrowse-dev] we shouldn't be letting glob() do our tilde expansion

[chris@the-brannons.com]

Two reasons, one can probably be surmounted, the other probably cannot.

1. musl, the libc implementation that I use for building the static
executables, lacks GLOB_TILDE_CHECK (and GLOB_TILDE for that matter).
I don't think they're in POSIX.
2. The insurmountable one is that it creates a big inconsistency in the
behavior of commands with respect to filename expansion.  Look at the
following typescript to see why.

I'd be happy to submit a patch for review to rework envFile, so that it
does its own ~ and ~username expansion.

Sorry I didn't catch this earlier.
