 Importing or linking a shapefile in spatialite (spatialite_gui, sqlite3 with mod_spatialite) fails if the extension is in uppercase (.SHP).

 This problem does not exist with csv / txt, xls, GeoJson, or dbf, or zip files (ZipFile archive for shapefile). However if the extension of these files is in uppercase they do not appear in the search window and the type must be set to "All files" to make them appear and select them.

 I am using Linux debian 5.6.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.6.14-2 (2020-06-09) x86_64 GNU/Linux (Bullseye testing 20200622 with partial update (sqlite3, spatialite) 20201003). My desktop environment is MATE 1.24.
