Case-insensitive equals

See original GitHub issue

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Since we have case-insensitive contains and case-insensitive starts/ends with, it would be really nice to just be able to case-insensitive compare!

Describe the solution you’d like Perhaps value__iequals="ThE VaLuE"

Describe alternatives you’ve considered Using startswith/endswith would obviously be error prone

It seems the doc is wrong here. From what I see in the code, it seems the filter is called iexact, not iequals:

I found iequals in doc of 0.16.13 https://tortoise-orm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/query.html?highlight=iequals#filtering But I cant use it and got exception Unknown filter param 'username__iequals'. Allowed base values are ['id' ... 'username' ...]. I have installed 0.16.13, but it’s not available.

So, which option is correct?

I’m using it incorrectly. But how is this possible, there is no explanation for this in the documentation.
The documentation is incorrect and tortoise still can’t do a case-insensitive search.
