This change uses Python's builtin
str.lowerto perform string lowercasing (typically used during case-insensitive element/attribute name comparison), and provides a nice small parsing performance benefit on Python (cpython 3.9.1).Benchmark command used:
python benchmarks/bench_html.py parse --rigorousBefore
After
