Pull request overview

This PR addresses issue #12624 by substantially expanding the about_Case-Sensitivity.md documentation across four PowerShell versions (5.1, 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6). The changes transform a brief, Unix-focused document into a comprehensive reference covering case-sensitivity behavior throughout PowerShell.

Key changes include:

  • Reorganized content structure with a guaranteed case-insensitive areas list and detailed special cases section
  • Added comprehensive documentation for 14+ specific scenarios where case-sensitivity varies or behaves unexpectedly
  • Included code examples demonstrating case-sensitive behavior in providers, cmdlets, operators, and .NET methods
  • Converted to reference-style links for better maintainability
