On Windows, the backslash is the directory separator, even if the
forward slash can be used, too, at least since Windows NT.
This means that the paths `a/b` and `a\b` are equivalent, and
`fspathcmp()` needs to be made aware of that fact.
How does fspathncmp() behave? It would be good for the two to match.
I've left a couple of thoughts below but I'm not sure they're worth
re-rolling for

Personally I'd find this easier to read as

There is a subtle difference between this and strcasecmp() because the
latter is locale dependent but our tolower() is not because we override
the standard library's version. As they're both useless on multibyte
locales it probably doesn't make much difference in practice.
Thanks
