ssh: don't quote ~ in remotepaths
~ is not expanded in double quotes, so we have a dilemma.
We need to quote in order to preserve filenames with spaces,
but we have to make sure we don't quote the ~ so it can be expanded.
To resolve this we use a regex to search for tidle-prefixes
and excluded them from quotes.
Added unittests for the cases:
path with tilde
path with space
path with tilde and space
see bash man page for details of tidle expansion
Tilde Expansion
If a word begins with an unquoted tilde character (`~'), all of the
characters preceding the first unquoted slash (or all characters, if there is
no unquoted slash) are considered a tilde-prefix. If none of the characters in
the tilde-prefix are quoted, the characters in the tilde-prefix following the
tilde are treated as a possible login name. If this login name is the null
string, the tilde is replaced with the value of the shell parameter HOME. If
HOME is unset, the home directory of the user executing the shell is
substituted instead. Otherwise, the tilde-prefix is replaced with the
home directory associated with the specified login name.
