The xfilepath package supports resolving filepaths with a user prefix
to absolute paths: it converts '~' and '~username' to $HOME of user
(as it's done by for  instance bash). No builtin golang module supports this
functionality [1]. We need this functionality in order to imitate the
behaviour of NEO/py in NEO/go [2].
