描述

Case-insensitivity support added in RF 3.0.1 (#2439) works fine otherwise, but error reporting isn't always consistent. Sometimes error messages show the compared values turned to lower case, and in others they show the original values. It would probably be best to to always show the original values but add a note like (case-insensitive) to the message automatically.

There are also other inconsistencies in error reporting (e.g. do messages end with . or not) that can be fixed when refactoring error reporting in general. Having a better way to report errors involving large strings or containers with many items would be great too, but that is probably so big task that it would deserve a separate issue.

研究方向
Investigate the error reporting in comparison keywords, particularly when `ignore case=True`. Look at the implementation of case insensitive comparison (see PR #2439). Review how error messages are constructed and ensure original values are shown with a note like '(case insensitive)'. Also, consider standardizing message formatting (e.g., consistent use of periods). The relevant files are likely in the `BuiltIn` module under `robot` directory.
