Tim Gross b7595c646d alloc fs: use case-insensitive check for reads of secret/private dir (#24125)
When using the Client FS APIs, we check to ensure that reads don't traverse into
the allocation's secret dir and private dir. But this check can be bypassed on
case-insensitive file systems (ex. Windows, macOS, and Linux with obscure ext4
options enabled). This allows a user with `read-fs` permissions but not
`alloc-exec` permissions to read from the secrets dir.

This changeset updates the check so that it's case-insensitive. This risks false
positives for escape (see linked Go issue), but only if a task without
filesystem isolation deliberately writes into the task working directory to do
so, which is a fail-safe failure mode.
