KURL::fromPathOrURL

[Aaron J. Seigo]

hi ...

after noticing a few bugs related to lack of tilde expansion in file selection 
boxes, it seems that people are (reasonably) expecting KURL::fromPathOrURL to 
do this for them.

seeing as KShell::tildeExpand is fast, i'd like to apply the patch below to 
KURL and then remove the now-unecessary tildeExpand's from kdelibs/base. was 
there a reason fromPathOrURL doesn't tildeExpand?
