run -j option fails to find unique job by name

#385

the run -j group/name option fails if multiple jobs match the specified job name, even if only one job has the exact job name.

e.g.

Venkman:test greg$ tools/bin/run -j 'test' 
# No project specified, defaulting to: test
Error: Failed request to run a job: Job not was not unique: /test: 5 jobs found

when rd-jobs lists only a single job with the exact name "test":

Venkman:test greg$ tools/bin/rd-jobs list
# No project specified, defaulting to: test
# Found 6 jobs:
- asdf
- test - 'test update redirect'
- test2 - 'test update redirect'
- uuidmodify test - 'asdf'
- uuidmodify test2 - 'asdffdd'
- uuidmodify test3 - 'asdf'

workaround: determine id via rd-jobs, and use -i option

fix: the RunDeck API needs to allow exact equality query for job name, and the CLI tool needs to use this query filter

    This fails as expected...

    $ run -j norestest # No project specified, defaulting to: examples
Error: Failed request to run a job: Job was not unique: /norestest: 2 jobs found: [2b87983b-a47a-4d77-82a9-8d69cde199f1, 03a50f6b-1570-429c-b337-b8fd051ab0ae]

    ... given the following jobs ...

    $ rd-jobs 
# No project specified, defaulting to: examples
# Found 2 jobs:
- norestest
- blar/norestest

    ... but can't seem to run the "norestest" job with new group name

    updated behavior of -j flag,

    -j "job name" -- this will match a job named "job name" at the top level same thing with -j "/job name"
