[PATCH] D68033: [llvm-ar] Make paths case insensitive when on windows

ruiu added a comment.

As jhenderson suggested, could you add a description about this behavior? Looks like llvm-ar doesn't have a manual page, so the second best thing to add a description is probably the help message for `--help`.

Well I'm not happy about this change, but this is probably an unavoidable consequence of the decision that Microsoft made in the early 80s...
