Fixes#348
Addresses #307 and #91

Per #345, resubmitting now that the issue has been filed.

This gates virtual alias matching and wildcard string-slicing behind an is_name_only check so explicit absolute paths cleanly fall through to _find_on_path.

…bare name rules
`PurePath.match()` performs right-aligned suffix matching, which caused absolute shebang paths (e.g., `C:\uv\python.exe`) to inadvertently evaluate true for bare names like `python.exe` or `python*.exe`.
This resulted in two critical bugs:
1. Virtual environment paths were hijacked by the `is_default` trap, falling back to the global default Python runtime instead of the specified one.
2. Custom executables (like `python_uv_test.exe`) were intercepted by the fallback wildcard search, resulting in arbitrary slicing and lookup errors for phantom version tags (e.g., `_uv_test`).
This commit introduces an `is_name_only` check (validating the absence of directory separators `/` and `\`) to safely distinguish bare commands from explicit paths. Gating the `is_default`, virtual alias, and wildcard extraction logic behind this check ensures explicit paths correctly fall through to `_find_on_path()`.
