Consistent capitalisation of option and environment keywords.

Also explain this convention.

Two exceptions: #+results, as it is dynamically inserted and
has always been lowercase, and #+BEGIN_LaTeX, with mixed case
to respect Lamport's will.  But all these keywords can be
written with lower/upper/mixed case.

Thanks to François Pinard for raising this issue.

Moreover, Org uses @i{option keywords} (like @code{#+TITLE} to set the title)
and @i{environment keywords} (like @code{#+BEGIN_LaTeX} to start a @LaTeX{}
environment). Both are written in uppercase@footnote{@code{#+results} is the
only exception, as it is dynamically inserted with lowercase characters.} for
a better readability of the manual, but you can safely use lowercase
(e.g. @code{#+title} and @code{#+begin_latex}) in your Org files.
The manual lists both the keys and the corresponding commands for accessing a

depending on context. The command that is bound to such keys has a generic
