Suppress case sensitivity re remote directories #3

Description

@SteveIves

Currently, SSH.NET considers remote directory names to be case sensitive, which they are not. Even on ODS-5 volumes, where file and directory names can be mixed case, they are not case sensitive. In other words, [FRED], [Fred], and [fred] are all the same directory.

The SSH.NET code, however, treats them as case-sensitive. If a directory on windows was originally synced in, say, lowercase, and then the case changes on Windows, subsequent syncs will fail because it will try to create a NEW directory matching the current case on Windows, but on VMS the directory already exists, and an exception is thrown.

Until the code is fixed, a workaround is to manually rename the folder on VMS at the same time as it is renamed on Windows.
