Treat case of tab-completion keywords a bit more carefully.

When completing keywords that are offered alongside names obtained
from a query, preserve the user's choice of keyword case.  This
would have been messy to do before 02b8048ba, but now it's fairly
simple.  A complication is that we want keywords to be shown in
upper case in any tab-completion menus that include both keywords
and non-keywords, so we can't switch their case until enough has
been typed that only keyword(s) remain to be chosen.

Also, adjust some places where 02b8048ba thoughtlessly held over
a previous choice to display keywords in lower case.  (I think
I got confused as to whether those words were keywords or variable
names, but they're the former.)
