Use shell to start eval_password command
Since https://github.com/profanity-im/profanity/commit/d92c576aa53505d712715b1acc6344af3262c84f
we rely on g_spawn_sync().
Which doesn't do variable/glob expansion.

For our use of call_external() in opening and URL or avatar this is
fine.

For getting the password we want to be able to use ~ for our files.
Let's use a shell here.

Fix https://github.com/profanity-im/profanity/issues/1364
