Shekhar Vaidya 3994a82d6d feat(cli): homepage landing screen for bare msdl; fix search substring bug
The bare `msdl` invocation showed all 22 products (17 consumer + 5
eval) as a flat numbered list. Replaces it with a curated landing
screen: 5 popular products (picked from real usage telemetry) plus a
2-item eval shortlist, with "list" as an escape hatch to today's full
picker and free text routed through the existing search flow.

Also fixes a search bug: querying "windows 10" incorrectly matched
Windows 11 24H2 because "10" is a substring of its build number
(26100.1742). Query words now must start at a word boundary rather
than matching anywhere, so digit fragments inside unrelated numbers
can no longer collide -- while "arm" still fuzzy-matches "ARM64".
