I would like to have an option to allow snake_case variable names, even enforce it exclusively.

There are third party rule packages that do this pretty good. Maybe you want to take a look at these two:
https://www.npmjs.com/package/vrsource-tslint-rules#ext-variable-name
https://www.npmjs.com/package/tslint-consistent-codestyle#naming-convention

I rather have an option, "allow-snake-case" added to Rule: variable-name

@ajafff would you review and potentially accept PR for this? My personal motivation is that snake_case is reportedly easier for non-latin language natives to read such as native Japanese readers, at least according to the ruby coding style guide.
