check-commit: allow foo_bar naming in functions

nameswithallthewordssmashedtogetherarehardtoread.
especiallyifenglishisnotyourprimarylanguage.

Let's align with the rest of the programming universe and
allow_the_use_of_underscores_in_names.

We took a hand poll at the 5.2 sprint regarding this change and
all but 1 person supported it. The person who didn't expressed
concerns around excessive API breakage if we mass renamed things.
But we're not planning to mass rename things for the sake of
renaming, so all should be well.

Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D2010

== New Features ==

 * The amend extension supports the `--currentuser` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--close-branch` argument.

 * The amend extension supports the `--secret` argument.

 * The uncommit extension supports the `rewrite.update-timestamp` config option.

== New Experimental Features ==


== Bug Fixes  ==


== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==

 * A shell that supports `$(command)`` syntax for command substitution is now
   required for running the test suite. The test runner normally uses
   `sh`, so if that is a shell that doesn't support `$(command)` syntax,
   you can override it by setting `$HGTEST_SHELL` or by passing it to
   `run-tests.py --shell <shell>`.

 * The (experimental) narrow extension's wire protocol changed. If
   you're using it, you'll need to make sure to upgrade server and
   client at the same time.

== Internal API Changes ==
