patch 9.1.1374: completion: 'smartcase' not respected when filtering matches

Browse Source 
Problem:  Currently, 'smartcase' is respected when completing keywords
          using <C-N>, <C-P>, <C-X><C-N>, and <C-X><C-P>. However, when
          a user continues typing and the completion menu is filtered
          using cached matches, 'smartcase' is not applied. This leads
          to poor-quality or irrelevant completion suggestions, as shown
          in the example below.
Solution: When filtering cached completion items after typing additional
          characters, apply case-sensitive comparison if 'smartcase' is
          enabled and the typed pattern includes uppercase characters.
          This ensures consistent and expected completion behavior.
