bookmark search fails to find/recognize "special characters" , e.g., @$&_,

Reported by paul3...@gmail.com, Oct 7 2016

Issue description

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. open bookmarks

The bookmark search API was meant to be used for the omnibox and thus special letters were not recognized well.

I will reassign this to ltian@ as an available bug and see if he has cycles to look at it.
