Issue #373 - Add a case-sensitive search checkbox

[ericbsd]

• Added a "Case Sensitive" checkbox next to "Search Description" in the search toolbar. It is unchecked by default and follows the same sensitivity rules as the other search widgets.
• search_packages() now takes a case_sensitive argument, passing -C to pkg search when checked and -i when unchecked. Previously no case flag was passed, so the result depended on the CASE_SENSITIVE_MATCH setting of pkg.
• Regenerated po/software-station.pot and merged the catalogs. The new strings "Case Sensitive" and "Match the search case exactly" still need translation.

Closes ghostbsd/issues#373

Reviewer's Guide

The PR adds a default-off case-sensitive search option to the toolbar, propagates it into package searches, and explicitly selects pkg’s -C or -i matching mode instead of relying on the system setting; translation catalogs are regenerated for the new UI text.
