Title: Episode search improvements (inexact name matching)

This pull is mainly to improve support for special episodes which are never numbered correctly in searches, they generally require a search by name. They also rarely have episode numbers and the standard Parse fails, so instead I made it search the episode repository for the release title and used any Episode that matches. Doing the inexact series/episode title search searching is probably a bit slower during updates. The implementation needs to be changed to something faster. I also added indexer support for query based searches for named episodes (NewzNab only for now).

Improved support for special episodes and named episodes. Series and episodes use fuzzy searches for lookups to tolerate inexact episode naming. ParseTitle method was added to perform a name search for any new downloads or search results.

Added ability to search indexer using query strings, added support for fallback searches using episode titles or SxxExx syntax.
