Descrição
### Description
This issue is related to https://github.com/nexB/scancode-toolkit/issues/1748.
A directory named "rcs" was ignored by Scancode 3.0.2 (and 3.1.1), but not its contents. Scancode threw a KeyError exception and the results did not cover the complete target directory tree. The reason is that Scancode takes "rcs" to be identical to "RCS", which is on its built-in ignore list.
The latest versions of Scancode remove "RCS" from the ignore list, but this seems a partial solution, it would be better to go further and make the checks of directory/file names against items on the ignore list case sensitive (except on Windows). Specifically, get_matches() in fileste.py changes the case of the item to be ignored to lower and I suggest it shouldn't.
### How To Reproduce
Run a scan on a directory containing a subdirectory named "rcs" (with further subdirectories and files in it)
Command-line options used:
--copyright
--license
--ignore
--info
--strip-root
--timeout 300
--processes 15
{DIRECTORY_TO_SCAN}
### System configuration
* OS: Ubuntu 18.04
* scancode-toolkit: 3.0.2 (also tested 3.1.1)
