Description
Little quality of life change that would allow you to create static glob configurations for use throughout the program, like this
pub const CASE_INSENSITIVE_GLOB: glob::MatchOptions = glob::MatchOptions {
case_sensitive: false,
..glob::MatchOptions::new()
};
glob::glob_with("...", CASE_INSENSITIVE_GLOB)
Of course you can easily work around this by manually specifying all the fields. It would be convenient to be able to fill in default values, though :)

Research direction
Start at MatchOptions::new in the glob crate and inspect how its default values are defined. Make the constructor usable in const expressions so the static CASE_INSENSITIVE_GLOB configuration shown in the issue can compile, then verify that the example works.
