tmpfiles: fix specifier expansion in arguments of C lines

Make sure the argument of "C" type undergoes specifier expansion
before it's checked for validity.  In particular, starting with
commit ce610af143b2, the check for path existence used to fail
in case of presence of any specifier in the argument.

Also, starting with commit 2f3b873a4973, when the path contains
a specifier and the argument is omitted, tmpfiles used to perform
specifier expansions twice: first specifier expansion was applied
to the path itself, and afterwards the result of the first expansion
was used in the constructed argument and expanded once again.

Finally, starting with commit 849958d1ba35, when the argument begins
with %h specifier, tmpfiles used to complain that the source path
is not absolute.

Resolves: #25381
Fixes: ce610af143b2 ('tmpfiles: in C lines, make missing source graceful error')
Fixes: 2f3b873a4973 ('tmpfiles: copy/link /usr/share/factory/ files when the source argument is omitted')
Fixes: 849958d1ba35 ('tmpfiles: add new "C" line for copying files or directories')
