Subject: [PATCH] Compare the Range unit case-insensitively
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

RFC 9110 §14.1 makes range unit names case-insensitive, but
parse_range_header() matched "bytes=" exactly, so a request with
Range: Bytes=1-3 was answered with 416.
