Pull request overview
This PR adjusts niv update <PACKAGE> filtering so that when an exact package name isn’t found, the CLI falls back to selecting packages whose names start with the provided pattern (prefix match). This makes partial package-name updates possible while still preferring an exact match when available.
Changes:
- Keep exact-match behavior for package selection when the provided pattern matches a package name exactly.
- Fall back to prefix-based filtering when no exact match exists.
