Description

I'd like to be able to match a word case insensitively to be able to catch words that should be abbreviated in my project, eg End of Day -> EOD. I've tried using the (?i) regex mode modifier but it breaks the parsing, and using '/End of Day/i' doesn't work. Whatever the recommended way to do this is, even if it's just '[Ee][Nn][Dd]\\s+[Oo][Ff]\\s+[Dd][Aa][Yy]', could it be added to string-content.md?

Research direction
Examine the `string content` rule's source code to understand how patterns are matched. Implement support for case insensitive matching by either accepting regex flags or providing a separate option. Update the rule's documentation.
