fix: ensure path prefix search respects directory boundaries#27

Added a trailing slash to the SQL LIKE pattern to prevent partial directory matching (e.g., 'proj' matching 'project'). Added a regression test.

Description
This PR fixes a bug where the path prefix search in
search_similaruses a SQL LIKE pattern without directory boundaries. This caused partial matches where searching for a directory (e.g.,/home/user/proj) would also match sibling directories starting with the same prefix (e.g.,/home/user/project).Fix
The fix ensures that the LIKE pattern includes a trailing directory separator if one is not already present.
path LIKE '/home/user/proj%'(matches.../project)path LIKE '/home/user/proj/%'(matches only insideproj)Verification
Added a regression test
test_path_prefix_search_bug_reproductioninsrc/core/db.rswhich asserts that searching for a prefix does not return files from sibling directories sharing that prefix.Ran
cargo testand verified that the new test passes and no existing tests are broken.
