E1101 (no-member) when ForeignKey target model is specified as a string, in lowercase

[73VW]

Although Django seems to support it, pylint_django does not find models which are specified lowercase and this is due to the following code block: https://github.com/pylint-dev/pylint-django/blob/master/pylint_django/transforms/foreignkey.py#121

            for module in list(MANAGER.astroid_cache.values()):
                # only load model classes from modules which match the module in
                # which *we think* they are defined. This will prevent inferring
                # other models of the same name which are found elsewhere!
                if model_name in module.locals and module.name.endswith(module_name):
                    class_defs = _get_model_class_defs_from_module(module, model_name, module_name)

                    if class_defs:
                        return iter([class_defs[0].instantiate_class()])

module.locals contains class names the way they appear in the model files, for example 'MyModel': [<ClassDef.MyModell.193 at 0x7fe5ebc42560>].

However, if I define my Foreign Key with the target myapp.mymodel, which is strictly valid in Django, model_name in module.locals will fail because model_name contains mymodel and module.locals has a key MyModel.

I am using the following versions:

• django 4.2.20
• pylint 3.3.6
• pylint_django 2.6.1

I have no idea what would be the best way to improve this check.

A naive approach would be to do:

if any([model_name.lower() == local_model.lower() for local_model in module.locals]) and module.name.endswith(module_name)

but I am not sure about the performance of this.
