Unconventional local variable name

Reports local variables with names that are either too short, too long, or don't match the specified regular expression pattern.

Use the Pattern field to specify a regular expression for validating local variable names.

Use the Min length and Max length fields to specify the minimum and maximum length of a name correspondingly.
