Bug

aws_config_directory configured in clp-config.yml does not resolve ~ though it was provided as an example in the docstring:

clp/components/package-template/src/etc/clp-config.yml

Lines 129 to 130 in 4fa8a55

## Location of the AWS tools' config files (e.g., `~/.aws`)
#aws_config_directory: null

also in the docs:

clp/docs/src/user-guide/guides-using-object-storage/clp-config.md

Lines 132 to 146 in 4fa8a55

### profile
Settings for this type are shown below. Replace fields in angle brackets (`<>`) with the appropriate
values:
```yaml
aws_authentication:
type: "profile"
profile: "<profile-name>"
```
`<profile-name>` should be the name of an existing [AWS CLI profile](index.md#named-profiles).
In addition, the _top-level_ config `aws_config_directory` must be set to the directory containing
the profile configurations (typically `~/.aws`):

clp/docs/src/user-guide/guides-using-object-storage/index.md

Lines 71 to 73 in 4fa8a55

:::{note}
Profile configurations are stored in your AWS config directory (typically `~/.aws`).
