New Features:

-   Added support for Jinja2 extension support, thanks to [@hackebrot](https://github.com/hackebrot) (\#617).

-   User config values for `cookiecutters_dir` and `replay_dir` now support environment variable and user home expansion, thanks to [@nfarrar](https://github.com/nfarrar) for the suggestion and [@hackebrot](https://github.com/hackebrot) for the PR (\#640, \#642)
