fix(search): match primary phases by their words, not exact labels

The secondary-only filters were hidden for an exact set of lowercased
labels, so a change of case, hyphen or spacing in a GIAS phase label
would have left them showing. Phases are now matched on their words, as
compareGroups already reads "primary".

The E2E journey no longer counts school types: it asserts that choosing
one leaves the same list on offer, whatever the data holds. A test now
pins that a filter with no options is left out, not shown with only its
"any" option.
