Autosuggested fix for cd ~/something path creates a mess

Describe the bug

If you're in a directory (say ~/foo, and try to cd to a nonexistent tilde path, like cd ~/bar, Warp's generated suggestion single-quotes the path and generates an actual directory named ~.

Example:

I am in ~/Code/ACRadioPlayer/Example and type a cd to a non-existent directory:

cd ~/Code/azuracast-notifier
cd: no such file or directory: /Users/joemcmahon/Code/azuracast-notifier

The suggestion is

mkdir -p '~/Code/azuracast-notifier' && cd '~/Code/azuracast-notifier'

If this is executed, the result is the creation of and cd to ~/Code/ACRadioPlayer/Example/~/Code/azuracast-notifier, which is definitely wrong and a pain in the butt to clean up.

To reproduce

mkdir ~/foo
cd ~/bar

Accept the suggestion, and end up in

~/foo/~/bar

Expected behavior

The generated command should be

mkdir -p ~/bar && cd ~/bar

with no quotes around the path.
