httpd: prevent access to config file and authenticated URLs
Filesystems on Microsoft Windows are usually case-insensitive. This
allows clients to circumvent security by requesting URLs with changes
in case that aren't anticipated by the server:
http://example.com/Httpd.conf vs http://example.com/httpd.conf
http://example.com/SeCuReDir vs http://example.com/SecureDir
Use case-insensitive comparisons to avoid this.
