There does not seem to be any option for the builtin 'query' API to treat the
query as case-insensitive.
The Commons search box uses the OpenSearch API (from Extension:OpenSearch)
which seems to be case insensitive by default. It is possible to limit an
opensearch query to a particular namespace, so this could be used with the
category suggest. The result format is slightly different though.
