[Bug 268547] /bin/sh 'cd' should get user's home directory from password database if HOME is unset

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=268547

--- Comment #2 from Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org> ---
The code looks reasonable, but I don't really understand the point. What use
case is helped by this? Also note that this might use an unexpected directory
if there are multiple /etc/passwd lines for the same UID.

Apart from that, if you want this fallback here, you'll also want it for tilde
expansion without a user name (the tilde is currently left unchanged if HOME is
not set or empty).
