only_cwd on paths with partial matches

[serranomorante]

Description

        {only_cwd}              (boolean)   if true, only show buffers in the
                                            current working directory
                                            (default: false)

This doesn't work on directories with partial matches in their names: test1, test12

Steps to reproduce

Create the following tree structure on a new folder (any name will do) and cd into it.

.
├── repro.lua
├── test1
│   └── test1.md (content is not necessary)
└── test12
    └── test12.md (content is not necessary)

3 directories, 3 files

Paste the following snippet into repro.lua and open vim with this command nvim --clean +'so repro.lua'

-- DO NOT change the paths
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

vim.g.mapleader = " "

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

local plugins = {
  { "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", lazy = true },
  {
    "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
    keys = {
      {
        "<leader>fb",
        function() require("telescope.builtin").buffers() end,
        desc = "Buffers",
      },
    },
    opts = {
      pickers = {
        buffers = {
          only_cwd = true,
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

local lazypath = root .. "/plugins/lazy.nvim"
---@diagnostic disable-next-line: undefined-field
if not (vim.uv or vim.loop).fs_stat(lazypath) then
  vim.fn.system({
    "git",
    "clone",
    "--filter=blob:none",
    "https://github.com/folke/lazy.nvim.git",
    "--branch=stable",
    lazypath,
  })
end
vim.opt.runtimepath:prepend(lazypath)

require("lazy").setup(plugins, {
  root = root .. "/plugins",
})

Steps

1. Open 2 tabs
2. Dedicate tab1 to test1 folder tcd test1 and open test1.md file
3. Dedicate tab2 to test12 folder tcd test12 and open test12.md file
4. Press the keymap to show the picker (buffers) <leader>fb

You will notice that test12 folder only has 1 buffer (as it should) but test1 folder is not respecting the only_cwd option because it shows 2 buffers.

Expected behavior

only_cwd should work

Actual behavior

only_cwd doesn't work

Minimal config

-- DO NOT change the paths
local root = vim.fn.fnamemodify("./.repro", ":p")

-- set stdpaths to use .repro
for _, name in ipairs({ "config", "data", "state", "cache" }) do
  vim.env[("XDG_%s_HOME"):format(name:upper())] = root .. "/" .. name
end

  { "nvim-lua/plenary.nvim", lazy = true },
  {
    "nvim-telescope/telescope.nvim",
    keys = {
      {
        "<leader>fb",
        function() require("telescope.builtin").buffers() end,
        desc = "Buffers",
      },
    },
    opts = {
      pickers = {
        buffers = {
          only_cwd = true,
        },
      },
