Description
I suggest to add a local file name autocomplete.
When you enter for example /ho, a keypress should autocomplete /home/.
This feature exists in Vim (^X^F) and appears to be popular.

No files or tests are named in the issue. Start by locating micro's existing autocomplete or input-handling entry point, then determine how local paths are resolved and displayed. Done means entering a prefix such as /ho can complete it to /home/, with tests covering the requested behavior.
