Description

When validating jurisdiction, if we find zero matches we should re-run the check but ignore prefix. This is because there are circumstances where someone writes "Buttermilk Falls RD", which is in Ithaca. However the actual roads are "East Buttermilk Falls Road" and "West Buttermilk Falls Road."

Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the jurisdiction-validation entry point and the existing zero-match behavior; then trace how road names are compared. Done means a failed prefixed lookup retries without the directional prefix and correctly matches examples such as “Buttermilk Falls RD” to the available east or west road names.
