This behavior makes sense for the tab complete, but hints probably shouldn't prematurely expand ~

I've got this fixed for strings, but the shell prompt uses another dissimilar code path and that's not working yet.
There seems to be quite a lot of code duplication in REPLCompletions which makes it harder to fix.

Fixes #53884

Hints will show without expanding `~`, then a tab will complete the
shown hint, then a second tab on the resulting valid path expands `~`. I
think it makes sense?
