Description

Describe the bug
I have checked the documentation that says vim.igonrecase and vim.smartcase values set to true. But it does not work. If i set to false then it works. Please check.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior on Windows with VSCode 1.56.2, Vim extension 1.20.3, and the documented ignorecase and smartcase settings. Trace how those settings affect search behavior; done means setting them to true enables the documented case-insensitive behavior.
