Try and find an exact match via pkgcache before iterating the entire
localdb.
Gives a noticeable speed up for exact matches e.g. `pacman -T zlib`
---
Do note this fails for versioned exact matches. "zlib>1" will not take
the faster route because alpm_db_get_pkgfromcache() does not work for
versioned deps.
I do have a solution for this in an alternative patch which adds
alpm_db_find_local_satisfier() "62 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-)"
But is that worth it just for a speed up on -T? Nowhere else really
makes extensive use of searching the localdb.
