Description
Please add a switch for case-sensitive sorting. Most UNIX filesystems are case-sensitive, not being able to sort lists of filenames as case-sensitive breaks scripting.
[Eza](https://github.com/eza-community/eza) has a nice idiom for this, `--sort Name` and `--sort Extension` are case-sensitive, while `--sort name` and `--sort extension` are case-insensitive.

Research direction
No file or test path is named in the issue. Start by tracing the CLI sorting option and the existing filename sort implementation; done means supporting distinct case-sensitive and case-insensitive name and extension sorting as described, with coverage for both modes.
