Hermès Bélusca-Maïto 9174dcbd61 [NTOS:IO] Implement Win7+ I/O System case (in)sensitivity support (#9475)
This functionality is used to control the creation and opening of
named device objects in a case-(in)sensitive way.

It is controlled with a REG_DWORD value named `IoCaseInsensitive`
inside the registry key
`HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\I/O System` .

When compiled for Win7+, case insensitivity is enabled, which is the
expected default (like in the Object Manager). When compiled for Vista
and below, case insensitivity is disabled by default. The registry
setting allows changing this behaviour for backward/forward compatibility.
