[PATCH v3 4/5] Use a better name for the function interpolating paths

In-Reply-To
<pull.66.v3.git.1627164413.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

It is not immediately clear what `expand_user_path()` means, so let's rename it to `interpolate_path()`. This also opens the path for interpolating more than just a home directory.
