When dragging a file from Solution Explorer into the Managed Resources editor, the file path is written to the `.resx` file in lower case. This is because the "drop data" provided by Solution Explorer contains a lower-case path (both for SDK-style and legacy projects). To fix this, we walk the path, using `Path.EnumerateFileSystemEntries` to produce a correctly cased path for the file being dragged. Unfortunately there's no better way I could find to achieve this. I tried quite a few different approaches and this seemed like the least rubbish. The approach used in `GetFileNameInActualCase` elsewhere in the resource editor only handles the file name, not any directories above it.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I did some research after seeing this PR, and it does seem like an annoying situation to resolve. I believe this solution to be completely reasonable.
