Converts a string into a form that is independent of case. The
result will not correspond to any particular case, but can be
compared for equality or ordered with the results of calling
g_utf8_casefold() on other strings.
Note that calling g_utf8_casefold() followed by g_utf8_collate() is
only an approximation to the correct linguistic case insensitive
ordering, though it is a fairly good one. Getting this exactly
right would require a more sophisticated collation function that
takes case sensitivity into account. GLib does not currently
provide such a function.
