This function takes two counted strings: a <pattern, patternlen> pair and a <pathname, pathlen> pair. But we end up feeding the result to fnmatch, which expects NUL-terminated strings.
We can fix this by calling the fnmatch_icase_mem function, which handles re-allocating into a NUL-terminated string if necessary. While we're at it, we can avoid even calling fnmatch in some cases. In addition to patternlen, we get "prefix", the size of the pattern that contains no wildcard characters. We do a straight match of the prefix part first, and then use fnmatch to cover the rest. But if there are no wildcards in the pattern at all, we do not even need to call fnmatch; we would simply be comparing two empty strings.
