Rather than a command line switch which turns all filename comparisons
case-insensitive (per --ignore-case from ignore-case.diff), or makes filter
rules case-insensitive (per requested --filter-rules-case-insensitive), I'd
prefer filter rules themselves come in case-sensitive and case-insensitive
versions, e.g.:

# Exclude .gif files, but not .GIF
exclude, *.gif
- *.gif

# Exclude .gif and .GIF (and .GiF etc) files
excludei, *.gif
-i *.gif

A use-case for this is on a case-sensitive filesystem where you do care about
case sensitivity in file names (i.e. --ignore-case
isn't appropriate), but you want to filter all case permutations in some cases
but not others (i.e. --filter-rules-case-insensitive would be inappropriate).
