Bug description: realpath doesn't canonicalize drive letter case
Description:
------------
The realpath function doesn't canonicalize the case of the drive letter on
Windows (and possibly on certain other platforms).
For example:
realpath('C:\WINDOWS') returns 'C:\WINDOWS'
but realpath('c:\WINDOWS') returns 'c:\WINDOWS'
(note the different case of the 'C:')
Hence comparing realpaths cannot reliably be used to check that two files
are the same on Windows.
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo (realpath('C:\WINDOWS')==realpath('c:\WINDOWS')) ? "true" : "false";
Expected result:
----------------
true
Actual result:
--------------
false
