Fix multibyte issue in ltree_strncasecmp().
Previously, the API for ltree_strncasecmp() took two inputs but only
one length (that of the smaller input). It truncated the larger input
to that length, but that could break a multibyte sequence.
Change the API to be a check for prefix equality (possibly
case-insensitive) instead, which is all that's needed by the
callers. Also, provide the lengths of both inputs.
