This seems to fix the issue described in #494 where unneeded case-sensitivity in handling channel names causes people's messages to not be displayed if those people joined a channel using different capitalisation than you (on servers that do not normalise case).

IRC standard specifies case-insensitive channel names per RFC 2812.

Apologies if the way I've changed it isn't great or introduces another bug that I did not find testing this, I am not fluent in rust.

This seems to fix the issue described in squidowl#494

Thanks for this PR! However I feel like this is going to be addressed by @andymandias in #668.

No worries!

I had seen that they had self-assigned working on it in the issue page, I just wasn't sure at the time how far down the road a fix was going to be before implementation. Since this bug was the only thing preventing me from being able to switch over to halloy as my daily driver and I was enjoying the client overall, I figured I may as well have a go at it so that I can use it in the meantime and have a little look at rust in the process, once it was working I thought I should share it incase somebody else was in the same boat while the full fix was on its way :)
