[Michaël Cadilhac] Info `i' bug with partial-completion-mode.

[Michaël Cadilhac]

I don't think this patch has been applied nor reviewed.

The good recipe for the bug is:

,----
| emacs -Q
| M-x partial-completion-mode RET
| M-x info RET
| m emacs RET
| i emacs <TAB> (Okey, good)
| Add a space and then <TAB> again. The expected entries are not
| displayed:
| 
| EMACS environment variable       Emacs as a server
| Emacs icon, a gnu                Emacs initialization file
`----

A small bug. Recipe:

emacs -Q
M-x info RET
m elisp RET
i emacs TAB

Now, the point  will go back to the beginning of  the line, instead of
staying at the end, proposing L, ' ', - to distinguish the input.

It's just due to the fact that the completion mechanism doesn't know
that the search is case insensitive.

Patch proposal follows.
