Backport of #132857 to release/10.0

/cc @jtschuster @copilot

Customer Impact

  • Customer reported
  • Found internally

Crossgen2 does not accept uppercase letters as the file extension for .dll and .exe files. On filesystems that always report uppercase file names, this makes it impossible to use the affected versions of crossgen2.

Regression

  • Yes
  • No

Introduced between 10.0.5 and 10.0.9 of Microsoft.NETCore.App.Crossgen2.win-x64, likely e0f8bcb

Testing

Testing was validated with a local build of crossgen2.

Risk

Low. The change is small and targeted, and no existing tests have failed.

…ns (#132857)

`crossgen2` rejected input assemblies whose on-disk extension is
uppercase (`.DLL`/`.EXE`), which occurs on filesystems/network shares
that normalize casing (e.g. WinFsp/virtiofs). This is a regression from
`Microsoft.NETCore.App.Crossgen2` 10.0.5 → 10.0.9, breaking
`PublishReadyToRun` builds on affected volumes.

## Root Cause

`RunSingleCompilation` in `src/coreclr/tools/aot/crossgen2/Program.cs`
matched `Path.GetExtension(inFilePath)` against `.dll`/`.exe` using a
case-sensitive switch expression, throwing `CommandLineException` for
any other casing.

## Fix

- Replaced the switch expression with cascading `if`/`else if`
statements comparing the extension via
`StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase`, so `.dll`, `.DLL`, `.Dll`, `.exe`,
`.EXE`, etc. are all accepted.

- Fixes #132554
