Description

Type names are case sensitive hence 2 types can be created with different cases.

Example :
1. type1 with attributes a , b
2. TYPE1 with attributes c , d

The types creation succeeds and

/api/atlas/v2/types/entitydef/name/type1
/api/atlas/v2/types/entitydef/name/TYPE1

return the corresponding type definitions correctly.

When an entity e1 of type1 is created,
and when a BASIC search is fired with
typeName= type1 , e1 is returned and
typeName=TYPE1 also , e1 is returned.

But in the case of DSL search ,
typeName = type1 returns e1
typeName = TYPE1 doesn't return any result - which is the correct behavior.

This issue is major from tag side too because , UI Tag search is Basic and returns entity tagged with tag1 when searched for tag1 or TAG1.

Whereas DSL search with
classification=tag1 returns entity
classification=TAG1 does not return any entity. - which is the correct behavior.
