case insensitive tab completion about readline HOT 4 CLOSED

An upcoming release is going to provide full .inputrc support for keybinds.
I had forgot to tell you about it: don't bother trying to interface with the current version of the library,
especially keybinds; the API for them is going to change. Things like completions, history and hints won't change
though, they are stable now.

For your issue: case insensitivity will be possible in the upcoming release (a matter of days).

Learning the .inputrc configuration file, if you haven't already, will save you a lot of time when setting your binds to the readline console.

Hello Sammy,
I've just push a bunch of commits and will soon release the new version of the library, which supports .inputrc keybinds, as told previously.

About case-insentive completion: this is not handled by the library. When you will populate the readline.Completions type with one of the various
provided functions/methods (see completions.go), you will be responsible of filtering candidate against the current prefix. This is so that it's
both easier for most people and more powerful for people who want to check/set more custom logic.

I'm thus closing this issue, but don't hesitate reopening it (or creating a new one) if you need

Following recent fixes and changes to the completion system, the latter accepts an inputrc completion-ignore-case which, if set to on, will not filter candidates in case-sensitive way.
