/**
 * Case insensitive string compararison.
 *
 * iconv does not directly give us a way to compare strings in
 * arbitrary unix character sets -- all we can is convert and then
 * compare.  This is expensive.
 *
 * As an optimization, we do a first pass that considers only the
 * prefix of the strings that is entirely 7-bit.  Within this, we
 * check whether they have the same value.
 *
 * Hopefully this will often give the answer without needing to copy.
 * In particular it should speed comparisons to literal ascii strings
 * or comparisons of strings that are "obviously" different.
 *
 * If we find a non-ascii character we fall back to converting via
 * iconv.
 *
 * This should never be slower than convering the whole thing, and
 * often faster.
 *
 * A different optimization would be to compare for bitwise equality
 * in the binary encoding.  (It would be possible thought hairy to do
 * both simultaneously.)  But in that case if they turn out to be
 * different, we'd need to restart the whole thing.
 *
 * Even better is to implement strcasecmp for each encoding and use a
 * function pointer.
