Add SQL function CASEFOLD().
Useful for caseless matching. Similar to LOWER(), but avoids edge-case
problems with using LOWER() for caseless matching.
For collations that support it, CASEFOLD() handles characters with
more than two case variations or multi-character case variations. Some
characters may fold to uppercase. The results of case folding are also
more stable across Unicode versions than LOWER() or UPPER().
