Currently, headline matching in `org-link-search' and
`org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link' is case-sensitive.

This is because of different reason - Org export is not able to export
fuzzy links that do not point to a named target:
(defun org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link (link info &rest pseudo-types)
"Return LINK destination.
INFO is a plist holding contextual information.
Return value can be an object or an element:
- If LINK path matches a target object (i.e. <<path>>) return it.
- If LINK path exactly matches the name or results affiliated keyword
(i.e. #+NAME: path or #+RESULTS: name) of an element, return that
element.
- If LINK path exactly matches any headline name, return that
element.
- Otherwise, throw an error.
