Enable exact match behavior for any path with slashes (#15458)
# Description

Closes #14794. This PR enables the strict exact match behavior requested
in #13204 and #14794 for any path containing a slash (#13302 implemented
this for paths ending in slashes).

If any of the components along the way *don't* exactly match a
directory, then the next components will use the old Fish-like
completion behavior rather than the strict behavior.

This change only affects those using prefix matching. Fuzzy matching
remains unaffected.

# User-Facing Changes

Suppose you have the following directory structure:
```
- foo
  - bar
    - xyzzy
  - barbaz
    - xyzzy
- foobar
  - bar
    - xyzzy
  - barbaz
    - xyzzy
```

- If you type `cd foo<TAB>`, you will be suggested `[foo, foobar]`
- This is because `foo` is the last component of the path, so the strict
behavior isn't activated
  - Similarly, `foo/bar` will show you `[foo/bar, foo/barbaz]`
- If you type `foo/bar/x`, you will be suggested `[foo/bar/xyzzy]`
  - This is because `foo` and `bar` both exactly matched a directory
- If you type `foo/b/x`, you will be suggested `[foo/bar/xyzzy,
foo/barbaz/xyzzy]`
- This is because `foo` matches a directory exactly, so `foobar/*` won't
be suggested, but `b` doesn't exactly match a directory, so both `bar`
and `barbaz` are suggested
- If you type `f/b/x`, you will be suggested all four of the `xyzzy`
files above
- If you type `f/bar/x`, you will be suggested all four of the `xyzzy`
files above
- Since `f` doesn't exactly match a directory, every component after it
won't use the strict matching behavior (even though `bar` exactly
matches a directory)

# Tests + Formatting

# After Submitting

This is a pretty minor change but should be mentioned somewhere in the
release notes in case it surprises someone.
