Description

I added a feature, the possibility to use "ignorecase" access in HeaderMapping.
The change is basically the use of an instance of TreeMap + String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER comparator, when filling headerMap :

new TreeMap<String, Integer>(String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER)

this based on a new flag in CSVFormat class, that handles this optional format.

The feature was originally issued by this SO Question [ 1 ], plus the encouragement made in my response to contribute or propose the change.
