Handling of pathname case is now complete.
* For logical pathnames, :LOCAL means UPCASE
* For physical pathnames or pathnames without a case :LOCAL means PREFERRED
DOWNCASE.
* Pathname constructors take the argument :CASE to be the case of the input
values and translate them to the case of the final pathname.
* Pathnames always keep their values in the local case.
* Pathname readers (pathname-{directory,name,type,host,device}), interpret
the :CASE argument to be the case of the output, which may be :COMMON or
:LOCAL (i.e. the local case OF THE PATHNAME).
