Improve path expansion
The current fix accounts for 99% use cases, but it doesn't completely fix the problem, for example ~root won't work.
See comment by @kidonng in https://github.com/gazorby/fifc/pull/16#discussion_r945158930_
As per the docs, there are four cases where fish understands commandline as path without explicit use of cd:
| cases | file completion in fifc |
|---|---|
1. starting with . |
❌ display fish completions but doesn't trigger find/fd |
2. starting with / |
✅ |
3. starting with ~ |
❌ ~/* works but not ~* |
4. ending with / |
✅ |
While 3 is a bug, 1 follows the same logic as other completion rules:
If not all item from fish completion output doesn't belong to any particuluar group (path, process ids, commands etc) we use fish completion instead of a custom command to feed fzf.
So when tabbing on .config fifc won't trigger find/fd completion as fish doesn't path-complete.
