Description

Where the file browser modal is invoked with a filter on file extensions, the filter is applied case sensitively. EG here
This means, for example, images with the extension .JPG (as opposed to .jpg) cannot be used

Expected Behavior

File extension filters should be applied case-insensitively

Steps to Reproduce & Installation Method

1. Put an image with a capitalised extension in a folder
2. Try to set it as a wallpaper

3. It can't be found

Alternatively:

1. Put multiple images in a folder, some with lower case and some with upper case extensions
2. Select one of the images as the wallpaper
3. Turn on wallpaper cycling

4. Only lower case extension images will be cycled
