Revert "Improve case-insensitive checks (Bug#24441)"

This reverts commit 2f5e0b1bf7b0ac4f450847db34d599a072020600.
I see no reason for removing code, documentation, and comments
in the original commit.

 Sometimes file names or their parts need to be compared as strings, in

+@var{filename} is on a case-insensitive filesystem.  It always returns
+@code{t} on MS-DOS and MS-Windows.  On Cygwin and Mac OS X,
+filesystems may or may not be case-insensitive, and the function tries
+to determine case-sensitivity by a runtime test.  If the test is
+inconclusive, the function returns @code{t} on Cygwin and @code{nil}
+on Mac OS X.

+Currently this function always returns @code{nil} on platforms other
+than MS-DOS, MS-Windows, Cygwin, and Mac OS X.  It does not detect
+case-insensitivity of mounted filesystems, such as Samba shares or
+NFS-mounted Windows volumes.
