On Windows 10 with WSL enabled, you can enable NTFS case sensitivity through `fsutil.exe file SetCaseSensitiveInfo [folder] enable`. This causes Git (both Windows and WSL) and compilers to malfunction, and is very difficult to fix. But Git on Windows (case-insensitive by default) encounters breakage as well, just less often.

fsutil.exe file SetCaseSensitiveInfo [folder] enable. This causes Git (both Windows and WSL) and compilers to malfunction, and is very difficult to fix. But Git on Windows (case-insensitive by default) encounters breakage as well, just less often.This PR fixes the consistency of upper/lowercase folders, files, and references to them in C++
#include, Visual Studio .vcxproj[.filters], and CMake files. I verified that compilation works in CMake, but didn't fully verify in Visual Studio, where IntelliSense is broken with case sensitivity enabled (wrecking the user experience).This PR should have no effects; it does not enable NTFS case sensitivity, you have to do it yourself.
