Parameter name case is different on Linux vs Windows #201

I'm looking at NOAA GFS grib2 data, specifically for geopotential height. On Windows, pygrib recognizes the name as "Geopotential Height". On Ubuntu, it is instead "Geopotential height" for the same file. This causes issues when moving previously functional select statements to an Ubuntu machine.

Windows: Pygrib version 2.1.4 Eccodes provided by Anaconda

Ubuntu: Pygrib version 2.1.4 Eccodes version 2.25.0

probably a difference in the names of the grib keys between eccodes lib versions used on Windows and Ubuntu
