Subject: [PATCH] Fix case-sensitive path comparison on Windows for file
extraction
- Add PathComparison property that uses OrdinalIgnoreCase on Windows and Ordinal on Unix
- Update all path comparison checks in ExtractionMethods to use PathComparison
- Add comprehensive tests for extraction with case-insensitive paths
- Ensure security check for path traversal still works correctly
