[PR #5534/9c7f3d37 backport][3.8] StaticResource only matches folder-like URL prefix

[patchback]

This is a backport of PR #5534 as merged into master (9c7f3d3).

What do these changes do?

I think this fixes #5250.

A static resource like:

routes.static('/foo', '/www/foo')

currently matches /foobar but returns 404. This PR ensures that aforementioned static route does not match /foobar

Are there changes in behavior for the user?

If a user expected /foobar to load the file /www/foo/ar, this PR will violate their expectation.

Related issue number

Fixes #5250
