Fix two related bugs: 1. When renaming a group and only changing capitalization, Pidgin prompted you "You are about to merge "Some Group" and "some group" 2. When renaming a group and only changing capitalization, libpurple got into an infinite loop because the dest and source groups were the same, and it tried to add buddies to itself until itself was empty. This resulted in increasing memory and 100% CPU utilization until the process was killed. Did we recently change purple_find_group() to be case insensitive or something?
