This is actually not only a problem in SolarisOS. I could replicate on
master in my local instance in Ubuntu 16.04 using a postgres DB.

The fix proposed here works for Elastic Search, I suppose they have this
type of search set up on the site.

But this is also happening when using internal search, so we need to fix
the other half of the problem as well.


Testing

This affects the user search (admin section user search and group user
search)

The steps I followed for Elastic Search:

- Set up elasticsearch
- Create a user with first name: PINGÜINO, last name: Person
- might need to wait for the cron to index the changes, or run the cron manually lib/cron.php
- Go to Admin menu->People->People search
- Search for PINGÜINO

Expected result: The user is listed in the results
Actual restult: the user is not listed in the results

After changing the function from strtolower to mb_strtolower on
searchlib.php file, the issue is fixed for elasticsearch.

The steps I followed for internal search:

- In Site options -> search settings change the search plugin to internal and save
- Go to Admin menu->People->People search
- Search for PINGÜINO

Expected result: The user is listed in the results
Actual restult: the user is not listed in the results

The tests are similar for group search.

Title:
  usersearch doesn´t work with multibyte-characters on SolarisOS

Status in Mahara:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Mahara 18.04.0, 18.04.2 and 19.04.0
  OS: Solaris 10
  Postgres-database
  Browser: Chrome 76, Firefox 60.7.0

  The User-Search doesn´t work with Multibyte-Characters (like ä, ö, ü,
  ß) within the searchterm under Solaris 10 Operating System.

  Solution is to change the strtolower()-funtion to mb_strtolower() in
  the searchlib.
