It can be either, depending on how you configure it. Or it could be a
small number of files with some users using one and some using another.

No.

That is a rather odd file name. I think you mean
file = /central/filters/${local_part}
No search-type is involved - a filter file is just a sequential file,
like a .forward file. Oh, if you wanted to look up the name of each
user's filter file, then you need something like
file = ${lookup{$local_part}dbm{/central/filters}{$value}{/default/file}}
