Bug report: import MAME set -> wrong game linked to romset

[Rinusch]

I've reported similar issues before, not sure if this is the same underlying issue, but the version of Launchbox (13.15) is much newer and this is still broken.

Both 'squash.zip' and 'squaitsa.zip' are being recognised as 'Squash' (https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/39104-squash). However, when I edit the metadata, the details are different. For instance, the latter lists 'Itisa' as the publisher, while the former lists 'Gaelco'.
When I 'unlink' the latter and type 'squash' before hitting the 'search for metadata' button, it only yields 1 result, namely the exact match. Only when I shorten the search term to 'squa' I can select 'Squash (Itisa)' from the search results. 

This shouldn't be to hard to troubleshoot/fix I expect?

Regards!
