Paths as stored in the gimprc have to be treated special. The
string may contain special identifiers such as for example
${gimp_dir} that have to be substituted before use. Also the user's
filesystem may be in a different encoding than UTF-8 (which is what
is used for the gimprc). This function does the variable
substitution for you and can also attempt to convert to the
filesystem encoding.</p>
