Add direct search for exact matches of filenames or trailing path segments. Fixes bug 1171313.

* Introduce a new type of direct searcher than can return LINE-domain results.
* Add a new filename direct searcher that uses it.
* Switch test harness to use url_for() rather than hard-coding URLs.
* Change direct_result_eq(..., None) to mean "returns a FILE-domain direct result" rather than "doesn't return a direct result".
