Restricted pages do not display in the sidebar/search when a user has access to them through a group with an uppercase letter on its name

      Issue Summary

      In Confluence, if the user restricts a page for groups with an uppercase letter, members of the group will not be able to find the page on the sidebar, or, search for the same while using the quick search feature.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. As a site-admin of the application, make sure to create a new group that will be using uppercase letters through https://site.atlassian.net/admin. For example, "testiNG".
      2. With the created group (and also, the Application Access granted for the same, if needed), make sure to add specific users to the same.
      3. Now, in Confluence, access a child page from the Home page of a space and restrict the same for the created group.
      4. Ask one of the group members to access the page by sending the link
      5. Ask them to check the sidebar and also, try to search for it.

      Expected Results

      The page should be searchable and displayed in the correct hierarchy on the sidebar.

      Actual Results

      Only the Home page link is displayed on the sidebar and the page is not findable. If expanding the home link, the page will not be listed.

      Workaround

      Either add the users to a new group that will not use uppercase letters or, individually add the users to the page restriction.
