[Oberon] Identifiers and Capitalization

[Thomas Frey]

For the newer Modules in Native Oberon and especially in Bluebottle,
normally the following convention was used:

Constant/Static "things" start capital. I.E. Modules, Types,
Constants, Procedures.
Variables start small : Variables, Fields, Parameters

Variables used as Constants because there is no static way for
initialization in the Language (Records/Arrays) are used
inconsistently upper/lower case.
