Research direction

Start at the Android app's direct resolve term handling and compare its behavior with lbry-desktop, as referenced in the issue. Check how spaces and other invalid characters are normalized and how channel-prefixed terms are tried. Done means entering “Naomi Brockwell” resolves both the compact name and @ form and returns the top result.
