Change name of ibcmp to foldEQ
As discussed on p5p, ibcmp has different semantics from other cmp
functions in that it is a binary instead of ternary function. It is
less confusing then to have a name that implies true/false.
There are three functions affected: ibcmp, ibcmp_locale and ibcmp_utf8.
ibcmp is actually equivalent to foldNE, but for the same reason that things
like 'unless' and 'until' are cautioned against, I changed the functions
to foldEQ, so that the existing names, like ibcmp_utf8 are defined as
macros as being the complement of foldEQ.
This patch also changes the one file where turning ibcmp into a macro
causes problems. It changes it to use the new name. It also documents
for the first time ibcmp, ibcmp_locale and their new names.
