In bpo-36264 os.path.expanduser was changed to ignore HOME on Windows.

Path.expanduser/home still honored HOME despite being documented as behaving the same
as os.path.expanduser. This makes them also ignore HOME so that both implementations
behave the same way again.

I'm not sure if I should add a "versionadded" and what it should say, since both functions are documented as working like "expanduser" and this is more like a bug fix than a change.
