Following discussion <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-February/129854.html> and general agreement that the current naming rule for variables is not ideal, this patch switches the naming rule to make `lowerCamelCase` the standard, consistent with a prior RFC <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2014-October/077685.html>.

Given that over 450,000 variables are currently named in `UpperCamelCase`, the rule also permits using that form for consistency with existing code. I can't see a way to express that in .clang-tidy files.
