There are cases[*] when one might want to have LOWERCASE letters in a spine
label.  These include 'a','b','c','d',... and 'z' after the date.

Although in the items table, itemcallnumber already allows (and in our system
already has) lowercase letters in such cases, when printing the spine label
PDF, all these are converted to UPPERCASE.
I believe that call numbers should not be converted to uppercase prior to PDF
export.


[*] For example:

PS
3603
.L548
R43
2011a    <--- meaning the item is a Photocopy

PS
3603
.L548
R43
2011b    <--- meaning the second edition

or
PS
3603
.L548
R43
2011z   <--- meaning the year is uncertain
