This function implements a comparison algorithm that orders alphanumeric
strings in the way a human being would. The behaviour of this function is
similar to <function>strnatcmp</function>, except that the comparison is
not case sensitive. For more information see: Martin Pool's <link
xlink:href="&url.strnatcmp;">Natural Order String Comparison</link> page.
