Replace user home in a string with another string. Useful for tildifying a path.
## Usage
```js
var replaceHomedir = require('replace-homedir');
var shortPath = replaceHomedir('/Users/phated/myProject', '~');
// shortPath === '~/myProject'
```
## API
### `replaceHomedir(path, replacement)`
Takes a string `path` as the first argument and a string or function `replacement` as the second argument. If the `path` is absolute and begins with the User's homedir, the homedir portion of the path is replaced with `replacement` using String#replace.
If `path` is not a string, the function will throw.
