By default when region is not active, both `downcase-region` (C-x C-l) and `upcase-region` (C-x C-u) will operate on surrounding text in different ways depending on major-mode. This has caught me off guard a few times. So let's replace them with safer `downcase-region-only` and `upcase-region-only` functions which ONLY perform changes when the region is active. And obviously changes are only applied to the text within the region.
