Bill Fenner 81797980f7 search.cpan.org redirect reduction canonicalization project, pass 1:
URLs automatically rewritten from /search?dist=Foo or /dist/Foo
to /dist/Foo/ (note trailing slash).  After a 2002(!) reorganization,
this is the preferred way to refer to modules on search.cpan.org.

File::Path::Expand expands user directories in filenames. For the
simple case it's no more complex than s{^~/}{$HOME/}, but for other
cases it consults C<getpwent> and does the right thing.
