Problem/Motivation
TermTest fails currently with PostgreSQL as database backend. This is because we don't support case insensitive queries by default in PostgreSQL, so we use LOWER() to make things work. There is ongoing work within #2464481: PostgreSQL: deal with case insensitivity to have complete case insensitive support at some point. For now, this patch is abstracted from the ongoing work in #2464481: PostgreSQL: deal with case insensitivity to make TermTest pass as a first step.
Proposed resolution
Fix the tests.
Remaining tasks
Write patch with test coverage.
Write a change record.
User interface changes
None.
API changes
Adds a new class that database drivers can implement in order to change the behavior of EntityQuery queries.

Please give mradcliffe patch credits for this issue. The code from patch from comment 9 is his.
Beta phase evaluation
| Issue category | Bug because this fixes the case sensitivity handling in Entity Query class for pgsql database driver. |
|---|---|
| Issue priority | Major because case sensitivity happens across multiple entity systems even if the test failure is for taxonomy terms only. |
| Unfrozen changes | PostgreSQL until 7/1/2015 |
