I don't know whether you considered this, but a format which sets
FMT_SPLIT_UNIFIES_CASE may decide to convert everything into lower case,
and another format may decide to convert everything into upper case.
Both is fine.
So I would use input with mixed upper and lower case letters, and then
see whether the format converts into lower or upper or leaves the input
unchanged (not considering formats where split produces more than one
hash for a single input (like LM format)).
