Profiles names should be case insensitive

[alefragnani]

Hi,

Right now, Profile names are case sensitive, which means you can create different profiles named python, Python or PYTHON, without being warned about similar matches.

At first, I was using Profiles exclusively via UI, which is more obvious to notice if a similar profile is available, so I wouldn't create a new one, but once I decided to use the VS Code CLI to launch projects with specific profiles (--profile param), it was clear that I would easily miss the right profile, and ended up creating a new, empty profile, with the name I expected to be.

The same case insensitive support would be added to the vscode.openFolder command, which now supports the profile as a param, as provided here #156173

Thanks in advance
