matchadd() does not respect 'ignorecase'

Is matchadd() supposed to respect 'ignorecase'? The documentation does
not explicitly say, but it uses a {pattern} like search() and
searchpos(), both of which *do* respect 'ignorecase' and 'smartcase'.

To test:

$ vim -u NONE -N

[enter some text like "abc ABC"]

[run the following ex commands]

highlight SneakPluginTarget guifg=white guibg=magenta ctermfg=white
ctermbg=magenta

set ignorecase

call matchadd('SneakPluginTarget', 'a', 2)

---

Only the lowercase "a" is highlighted, even though 'ignorecase' is set.

Thanks for your help!
