Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The filters in some widgets are using Case-Sensitive. For example - Types widget, Flags widget

Describe the solution you'd like

Enable case-insensitive search in them all

Describe alternatives you've considered

Best option will be to set case-insensitive by default and add a little button to toggle the mode. But that is only a nice-to-have

Additional context

It will be also nice to make sure that the filters enable Wildcard Matching

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the filter implementation in the Types and Flags widgets. Identify where case sensitive matching occurs and modify it to be case insensitive, possibly using Qt's case insensitive match flags. Optionally, add a toggle for case sensitivity. Also consider implementing wildcard matching as suggested.
