User Experience:
Users of Russian Windows localization can be confused, because commands are case sensitive. So, "Новая вкладка" ("New tab") command cannot be found with "новая" ("new") input string in lowercase, but can be found with "Новая" ("New"), which preserves the case.

Test Environment:
App: Windows Terminal 1.7.1033.0
Feature: Command Palette
OS: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19042.928]

Repro Steps:

  1. Open Windows terminal app
  2. Open Command Palette using shortcut (ctrl+shift+p)
  3. Search for New tab command in the search field in Russian, use "новая" search string for this and see the empty result:
    1
  4. Now use "Новая" instead, see the different result
    2

Expected:
Commands in Command Pallete to be case insensitive.
In fact, commands should be findable in English also, even is Russian localization of the OS.

So, both "new" or "новая" search strings should find "Новая вкладка" command (which is Russian translation for "New tab").
