nice improvement. Guess we could merge for the next major release. Can't merge that right away, as it might break some of the ports to other languages reusing the yml files. |

As a followup for #5959, I've tried an idea and would like to suggest this change to have enhanced replacement options for generic regexes.
The idea is that in addition to $1 $2 $3 remplacements, we could also have modifiers like $u1 $l2 $uf3 to replace by an uppercase lowercase or uppercase-first value.
This would allow to keep the current generic non-case-sensitive regexes, while also supporting some user-agents where parts are in a wrong/outrageous case, like the example in the fixture with "Moto G" being provided as "g" in the user-agent.
This is backwards compatible and doesn't slow down the detection.
