MISE_TRUSTED_CONFIG_PATHS working but with a string value only

Discussed in #4212

My application is in ~/app_0f5a5bcb-cd94-488b-b54e-768cc4f036d7 which is untrusted.

To trust it, I add a setting which is not working:

[settings]
trusted_config_paths = ["~/app_0f5a5bcb-cd94-488b-b54e-768cc4f036d7"]

If I use the MISE_TRUSTED_CONFIG_PATHS environment variable, I face the same problem. But if y set this env var to ~/app_0f5a5bcb-cd94-488b-b54e-768cc4f036d7 (just a string, no array), it's working and I have no warning:

But documentation states that a string array is expected and that's what's produced by mise settings set command.

I use this setting for quite a long time and for me this works as expected. If i uncomment the setting i get asked to trust the files as expected.

trusted_config_paths = [
  '~/Dev',
]

As for the environment variable MISE_TRUSTED_CONFIG_PATHS the values should be colon separated e.g. export MISE_TRUSTED_CONFIG_PATHS=~/Downloads:~/Dev. The docs currently miss this information for various environment variables which are either comma or colon separated. Something to follow up on as well.
