pt-kill matches does not support modifiers

[Jervin R]

This is pt-kill 2.2.14, likely apply to other tools as well - a feature request to support regex modifiers, at least case insensivite matching.

Unfortunately, after looking at the code, the match-info command does not support passing modifiers which seems to be a limitation of the tool.

   3572 sub _find_match_Info {
   3573 my ( $self, $query, $property ) = @_;
   3574 return defined $property && defined $query->{Info}
   3575 && $query->{Info} =~ m/$property/;
   3576 }

A potential workaround is to specify the permutations of the "SELECT" word in small and uppercase variants in the regex like below. Can you please test and let us know.

--match-info='^[Ss][Ee][Ll][Ee][Cc][Tt]'

Indeed, the way $property is used modifiers (http://perldoc.perl.org/perlre.html#Modifiers) will not work as expected.
