Synopsis: Command line compiler -target option should not be case-sensitive

Description
The -target option to the command line compiler is case-sensitive.
If my .ecf file specifies target "abc" or "ABC", the compiler treats
it as "abc".  If I then specify

   ec -target ABC

the compiler says:

Target `ABC' does not exist or is not a compilable target.
Choose among the following target(s): 
 - abc

Compiler should lowercase what I specified on the command line before
trying to match it to the targets in the configuration file.
