Missing !, and single-quotes preferred for non-expanded strings

I dropped ./, as you don't use that for the other paths

| ### With PIN | ||
| You can add `--pin` when calling `--generate` to require a PIN when encrypting or decrypting. |

Alternatively, we could make the default example use --pin - which I think is preferred - and maybe an addendum in place of this text that says that --pin is optional?

This pull request updates the README to fix some bad paths (the example didn't work) and aligns the input with the output.
Additionally, rather than hinting that
AGE_TPM_PINis how you might use a pin, I update the copy to say that this is how you might use the plugin non-interactively, instead.--pinwill prompt when encrypting and decrypting, no environment variable required.
