[QGIS-Developer] Bug with GeoPackage and Expressions?

SQLite, which is the underneath database engine for GeoPackage, doesn't 
support ILIKE. The SQLite LIKE operator is actually case insensitive for 
ASCII characters. See paragraph 5 "The LIKE, GLOB, REGEXP, and MATCH 
operators" of https://www.sqlite.org/lang_expr.html
