mailmap doc + tests: document and test for case-insensitivity

Add documentation and more tests for case-insensitivity. The existing
test only matched on the E-Mail part, but as shown here we also match
the name with strcasecmp().

This behavior was last discussed on the mailing list in the thread
starting at [1]. It seems we're keeping it like this, so let's
document it.

which allows mailmap to replace both the name and the email of a
commit matching both the specified commit name and email address.

Both E-Mails and names are matched case-insensitively. For example
this would also match the 'Commit Name <commit@email.xx>' above:
--
Proper Name <proper@email.xx> CoMmIt NaMe <CoMmIt@EmAiL.xX>
