If a filename has no number in it at all, when choosing the best series, we 
should prefer a series with TPB or "trade" in the title.

This is not going to be easy to do based on series title, since Comic Vine 
seems to be removing occurrences of "trade" or "tpb" from series titles.   
Occasionally the issues themselves are titled with "trade" or "tbp", but of 
course we cannot scan through the issues in each series while deciding how to 
sort/filter series for a simple comic book search...
