Windows service accounts are case preserving but not case sensitive.

Before this change, Windows service logon account names were compared directly as case sensitive. When there was a case mismatch, it was treated as a change to the account and the service was restarted. This now normalizes case before comparing, reducing spurious restarts.

@binford2k can you please rebase? Tests should pass afterwards.

@bastelfreak you can squash or rebase while merging, yeah?

Windows service accounts are *case preserving* but not *case sensitive*.

Before this change, Windows service logon account names were compared
directly as case sensitive. When there was a case mismatch, it was treated
as a change to the account and the service was restarted. This now
normalizes case before comparing, reducing spurious restarts.
