[io] FilenameUtils case sensitivity
Currently the comparison methods isExtension and wildcardMatch will compare
case insenstive on windows and case sensitive on Unix.
Given that one of the key reasons for using the class is to avoid filename
issues when moving from windows to unix, this seems like a Bad Idea.
I intend to change these (unreleased) methods to be case sensitive always,
and documented as such.
Any objections?
