rustdoc search: allow queries to end in an empty path segment

fixes #129707

this can be used to show all items in a module,
or all associated items for a type.
currently sufferes slightly due to case insensitivity,
so `Option::` will also show items in the `option::` module.

it disables the checking of the last path element,
otherwise only items with short names will be shown
