Skewb face solver notation is upside down #502

Description

@torchlight

In standard rubikskewb notation, which is frequently used for writing skewb algs, uppercase letters (LFRB) are used for top-layer corners and lowercase letters (lfrb) are used for bottom-layer corners. csTimer's solver tool currently does the opposite.

E.g. for the scramble R' B' U L' B' L U L' (in fixed corner notation), it gives these face solutions:

U:  y' R' b' B
R:  y2 b' B  b'
F:  x' R' B' b' r  B
D:  R' r' B  b  R'
L:  x  R' r' B' r  R
B:  y  R' B' b  B' r

None of these solutions work when read as standard rubikskewb, but they do work when read as case-inverted rubikskewb.

(R and B are the same between case-inverted rubikskewb and FCN, but arguably it'd be less confusing to just use standard rubikskewb.)
