NSStringCompareOptions
NSCaseInsensitiveSearch	不区分大小写.然而在某些地方还有更复杂的情况。例如，在德国，“ß” 和 “SS”是等价的
NSLiteralSearch	区分大小写.它只在所有字符都用相同的方式组成的情况下才会返回相等
NSBackwardsSearch	从后往前搜索
NSAnchoredSearch	搜索限制范围的字符串
NSNumericSearch	它对字符串里的数字排序，所以 “Section 9” < “Section 20” < “Section 100.”
NSDiacriticInsensitiveSearch	“A” 等同于 “Å” 等同于 “Ä.”
NSWidthInsensitiveSearch	一些东亚文字（平假名和片假名）有全宽与半宽两种形式。
NSForcedOrderingSearch	忽略不区分大小写比较的选项
NSRegularExpressionSearch	只能应用于 rangeOfString:..., stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:...和 replaceOccurrencesOfString:...方法

NSMutableString *string = @"Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.".mutableCopy;
    
[string replaceOccurrencesOfString:@"Do"
                        withString:@"todo"
                           options:NSCaseInsensitiveSearch
                             range:NSMakeRange(0, string.length)];
